I am trying to use the "System.Windows .Forms.SendKeys " class for triggering
the Ctrl+P key.
Syntax:
System.Windows. Forms.SendKeys. Send("^(P)");
This is not working ..what could be the reason..?
Situation:
I have a menu in my form, which is given a short key "Ctrl+P", now when the
form gets loaded, when I press the "Ctrl+P" then the menu functionality is
working. But the same thing I wanted to trigger on a button on click with
the following code..
System.Windows. Forms.SendKeys. Send("^(P)");
this is not working..
Note: Infact any of the "Ctr+AnyAlphabe t", ie, Ctrl+A or..Ctrl+B..or
...C..like that is not working when using
System.Windows. Forms.SendKeys. Send("^(P)");
But the same thing is working fine, when I have as "Ctrl+AnyNumber ", ie,
Ctrl+1 or Ctrl+2 with
System.Windows. Forms.SendKeys. Send("^(1)");

You must send this command to the correct form...

Thanks for the reply.
I got the solution.... the call is case-sensetive and hence the following
would work:
System.Windows. Forms.SendKeys. Send("^(p)");

Hello,
I have a question regarding SendKeys(). I am working on a small VB .Net
script that manipulates/automates programs through SendKeys().
Unfortunately, I have run into several problems. First, almost all of my
manipulations use the ALT key to browse through the different menus within a
window. The problem is that I have found that using SendKeys() to send ALT+F
or ALT+R has a different effect from typing ALT+F or ALT+R.

I need to create a report in MS Word populated with data from A2K. I
have been asked to create the report in Word so that parts of it can be
edited as necessary later. The data in the report are in a table with
headings for each column, so converting an Access report to a Word doc
in RTF doesn't work because only the text is converted, not the table.
What I have tried so far, with some success, is to write the report
directly in Word....

Hi,
I'm trying to send input from one form into another in my c# app. I manage
to make the form I'm trying to input to active (or at least I think so, cuz
when I press keys on my keyboard they enter into that form), but
SendKeys.Send doesn't seem to do anything.
This is my code :

I am writing a C# Windows App that updates out Excel reports' modules. The
app is complete, but has a problem. The only way MS allows you to unprotect
the VBA code in Excel is to do it by hand or sendkeys.
I hate using SendKeys, but I am forced to use them. Anyway, I have written a
function that will unprotect the VBA code in the current work book. It works
about 60% of the time. For some reason it gets out of sync and the SendKeys
don't...

Can anyone tell me if there's a way to fillin a web form using SendKeys?
I have written a program that uses Com Interop to create an instance of IE,
and navigate to the correct webpage.
Then I use a series of SendKey("{TAB}") commands to get to the correct input
box on the webpage.
Next I try to use the SendKey command to enter phrase to utilise, but all I
get is another instance of the same webpage, not the result that I expect.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
