How to simulate mouse click in vb.net

Hi,

Instead of using user32 API for simulating mouse click (left down, left up,
etc.), are there any .net function/class that i can use?
Public Declare Sub mouse_event Lib "user32" (ByVal dwFlags As Int32, ByVal
dx As Int32, ByVal dy As Int32, ByVal cButtons As Int32, ByVal dwExtraInfo
As Int32)

Thanks,

Glenn

Thanks.

How about keboard events? Is there another way of simulating keyboard events
in .net without using keybd_event user32 API.

If none, is this declaration correct?

Public Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, ByVal bScan
As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)

Thanks,
Glenn

'SendKeys.Send' .

Public Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32" (ByVal bVk As Byte, ByVal
bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)


No, it's incorrect. Change 'As Long' to 'As Int32'.

Is it possible to simulate a mouse click in the window I made (it's a Form), but not give it focus? I tried using WinAPI's mouseevent and SendMessage of WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP as suggested by the folks in #winapi on EFnet, but I think those require the window to have focus. Either that, or I'm doing something else wrong. The click...
