Hi all Is it possible to simulate a key press or mouse button press? I have a number of procedures which are called by appropriate key presses or mouse button presses e.g if keydown(37) then PROC_dothisfunction if mousedown(1) the PROC_doanotherfunction For various reasons i won't go into (but not least of which is that I've cocked up my programming logic in a program) I need to "trick" Blitz 3D into thinking I have performed the above presses when in fact I have not physically done so. Thanks in advance

;get user input Key37 = keydown( 37 ) MD1 = mousedown(1) if Key37 PROC_dothisfunction if MD1 PROC_doanotherfunction To force a keypress just put Key37 = true or MD1 = true after the user input and before the functions are called. Stevie

Hello Stevie Many thanks for your response which does the trick perfectly. Regards
