Hello, I am trying to use the SendMessage function to send CTRL+S to notepad, what I have figured out so far is that I need both the parent "Notepad" and child handle "Edit" for notepad using FindWindow. I can already send plain text to notepad, but I'm having problems with stimulating hot-keys, I tried this following code segment for CTRL+V and it works, but why dosnt the ascii for CTRL+S work? and is there an ascii code for ALT+#?
Lets for example say ALT+F to drop down File in notepad.
SendMessage(hwnd,WM_CHAR, 0x16, 1); // Sends a CTRL+V which works perfectly
Now this line...
SendMessage(hwnd,WM_CHAR, 0x13, 1); // Sends a CTRL+S but nothing happens.
Thank you.
