It didnt work at all. I'm sure send message which use SendMessage successfully ( try WM_CLOSE and it worked). But if try to send message WM_MOUSEMOVE, WM_LBUTTONDOWN or WM_KEYDOWN nothing happen. I used Spy++ and did a copy, but nothing happened. That's why I cant understand.

I feel like I've answered this question at least three times but here we go again. Faking input using the PostMessage or PostMessage API is a hit and miss affair - It will work for some applications and not so well, if at all, with others. The reason is that there is more information associated with a message other then the HWND, the message, the WPARAM and the LPARAM. To access this extra information you use APIs such as GetMessagePos and GetMessageTime. Then there is software that calls functions such as GetAsyncKeyState (this also works for mouse buttons).
This is the reason for the SendInput API - This is what you use to fake input - Unless you're faking for a particular app and you know the message techniques work.
If the application uses DirectInput I'm not sure how you would proceed and if the SendInput will work. This would probably only be an issue for games.

I'm not sure on the details but this site has something to say (and something to offer) on DirectInput and faking input.

I need to display a file encoded in EUC-JA in an edit control. The app is unicode and the edit control uses Arial MS Unicode, but the file is printed as garbage.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanx.

Hi everybody... did any of you work with GetTextExtentPoint32 or GetTextMetrics? 'cause I'm having a weird issue with this stuff.
I got a BOLD font... created with CreateFont and I specified at Weight the value 900 which should be ultra bold... Black. But when I call GetTextMetrics to retrieve it's data, the tmOverhang member is always 0.
<br />
hdcControl = GetDC(hwndControl);<br />
GetTextMetrics(hdcControl, &tmControl);<br />
If I do then GetTextExtentPoint32 on my text (it's about 20 letters), it will erroneously give me a bigger pixel size than I need (with a surplus of about 30 pixels). So I guess I should use tmOverhang to counter-act that surplus, but how can I do it if tmOverhang is always 0!?
Thank you ::- ).

Calculating its total width in pixels. GetTextExtentPoint32 returns stupid values.

Problem solved, don't bother with it any more (it was a problem between the chair and the keyboard).

Yeah this will happen because the exe looks for files in it's path i.e the path from where it started up(not always) i.e. desktop. You've got to mention the filename path to solve this.
Or else you can do this.
Put the file where the exe is.
Then you use this function to get the path of the exe:
GetModuleFileName(...)
Append this path to the file name. Then it will work always.

Hi,
If you have a file other than your application's folder, then you should tell the exact path statically to your application.
If you are storing the file in your application or temporary or system folders then you can use functions to get the file's folder.

Try messing with the windows styles. e.g.
HWND hWnd = ::CreateWindow("EDIT", "Hello", WS_POPUP|WS_VISIBLE, 0, 0, 100, 100, NULL, NULL, theApp.m_hInstance, NULL);
Makes window with no title bar and such.

Hi
I've created a MFC activeX control in vc++ 6.0. I am using that control in vb 6. I am catching the events fired by the control in the VB application. The problem
is that when i step through the application in VB i catch all the events thrown by the control however when i compile the application and run it i am unable to catch the events. Also when i debug the application in Visual C++ i can see that the events are being fired properly but VB application does not respond appropriately. Any body know why this might be happening?
Thanks

How to prevent a modal dialog from closing when we hit ESC key?
Thanks in advance,

Hi
While pressing ESC key by default ID_CANCEL(OnCancel) message is calling.
So write code inside OnCancel() to prevent this. Check the keypressed and if it is ESC key then dont call CDialog::OnCancel();

OnCancel will be called when Esc is pressed or the Cancel button with the id IDCANCEL is clicked.
