Few Newbie Questions

Alright, I need some resources if possible or just a nudge in the right direction with the following few things.

First of all, I need to know about SendKeys (I'm not sure if VC++ has this function as it exists in Visual Basic). If there is no sendkeys, I need another way to accomplish the same goal.

Secondly, I need to know how to switch windows at a certain command or time as I specify. For example, at 7:00 pm the program would open up notepad and type a few things with SendKeys.

Finally, I need a lot of good resources on working with time.

Thank you for your time and help.

I think what you want is to get MSDN from Microsoft, it will explain everything you require in detail.

The "SendInput" function synthesizes keystrokes, mouse motions, and button clicks.

ShowWindow will allow you to switch windows whenever you like.

Use "system" or "ShellExecute" or others to execute programs.

The "SetTimer" function creates a timer with the specified time-out value.

The "QueryPerformanceCounter" function retrieves the current value of the high-resolution performance counter.

The "time" will retrieve the current time in seconds.

Thank you, I guess i have to research to do through MSDN now. Thanks again

ALright, everything so far has been goin good. I've done a lot of the things I need to know about so far, but I'm still at a complete loss in terms of the time functions. Actually, I just can't find any resources anywhere on time in C/C++, and I wouldn't even know what libraries to include to use them.

Any help or especially links to resources would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
