SendKeys Question?

[Svenne]

Can you sendkeys to an non active app? somehow??

I do not think so .

Yes that is indeed possible, I used it one time to make a save progress of images quicker. I had to scan about 10 pages and select little 5x5cm pieces, then cut those and save them, hell of a lot of work. Until I used the SendKeys.

I did it like this:

Private Sub cmdGo_Click()
    Me.Hide
 
    SendKeys "^C", True
    'etc. etc.
End Sub

I don't understand how you mean that should work,..

what I mean is for example to sendkeys to an minimized notepad app,..

Oh, sorry I misunderstood the question, I thought you wanted to use sendkeys from a non-active app.

I don't think to non-active is possible.
