    Resolved [RESOLVED] Sending Keys to a Specific Window

    I basically need to do the same thing that this guy wanted to do: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=288808

    I need to send CTRL+S to a specific window. I want to use API's, not SendKeys

    Thanks,
    Zach

    Re: Sending Keys to a Specific Window

    I am not sure but I thinnk you can do that by using the following API's

    FindWindow
    PostMessage

    Simulating keystrokes by posting messages is not very reliable, because you can't normally know which window and how it is processing them. but anyways give it a try.

    Edit

    i did a quick search and found this. maybe this will get you started
