[mcerk]

OK, I have a touch screen keyboard, but I'd like to emulate keyboard with this buttons.

 

What do I have to call within button_click?

Try using sendkeys

sendkeys.send("poo")

Send the characted for the button pressed to the textbox:

 

pseudo code

EventHandler for A_button_clicked {
 textbox = textbox + "A"
}

Kejpa

That would only work for a textbox in your own application, I think his is to be used for other applications as well.

This is going to be interesting,

is there a custom keyboard for use with touch screens? How do you call it and how do you use it?

We're using touch screens but we've always provided the keyboard with our applications...

I dunno if this would help ....

 

the user32.dll has a

keybd_event(uint bVk,uint bScan,long dwFlags,long dwExtraInfo )

 

uint key = 44 // integer VK_SNAPSHOT = 44 - > for print screen

 

To generate a key press, you;d say :

keybd_event(key,0,0,0)

 

To generate a key release you;d say:

 

keybd_event(key,0,2,0)

 

A list of all key codes is defined in the winuser.h header

You can always use SENDKEYS like i said before!!
