Hello list,

Is there a way to generate a keyboard buton press from a RealBasic aplication, this is when my RealBasic program needs, will generate a keyboard press that other aplications will see as if the user really pressed the keybord, this is to make a function similar to joy2key.


For most purposes, the PressKey function in the Windows Functionality Suite or the PressKeyMBS function from Monkeybread will do the job. In some rare cases (XP Terminal Services Client, MS Outlook 2003 Settings dialogs, and perhaps others) these will not work. The keystrokes will simply be ignored by the application. In these cases, you need to simulate a hardware keystroke using a much more complex API call to SendInput. I've yet to find an implementation of SendInput for RB that has suited my needs, but I will be working on one soon. I will submit it for inclusion in the WFS when (if) complete.

It sounds like the existing methods will work fine for you.

hth,

Brian
