That application has a shortcut for open and it is "Ctrl+O",but how to run with my vb.net application??

you just press ctrl+O when the form has focus!

or are you talikg about writting the action openfile that happens once you click on the menu item?

When I hit ctrl+o its working and show me a dialog what to open,but how to do that using vb(do not hit manually by the keyboard)??

If I success with this problem I will success with my application above,because it's similar problem.
Any idea?

did you lookup how to send crtl+O using the send key method

I trying to sendkeys to another application using my button from my application.
Other application must get focus.How to do that?




CTRL+O or CTRL+C or CTRL+S= It does not matter
Some of them must be.

the example form microsoft about the use of sendkey explains all of the process in some detail!
