Thread: SendKeys question

so i found this on the msdn website..

Code:

C++

private:
   // Clicking Button1 causes a message box to appear.
   void Button1_Click( System::Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      MessageBox::Show( "Click here!" );
   }

   // Use the SendKeys.Send method to raise the Button1 click event 
   // and display the message box.
   void Form1_DoubleClick( Object^ /*sender*/, System::EventArgs^ /*e*/ )
   {
      
      // Send the enter key; since the tab stop of Button1 is 0, this
      // will trigger the click event.
      SendKeys::Send( "{ENTER}" );
   }

my question is, is this mfc? and can you accomplish the same thing with win32?

thanks

hm...interesting.

so then would it be possible to use keybd_event() to output like a string? like have it simulate me typing my name?

so then when i tell it to press a key, will it try to press a key in my program or could i have it type my name in like notepad?
also, how would i make it type a letter? would it be like (BYTE)'t' for the key i want?

cluelessness?


that doesn't happen often...
