| I need a way to make keys virtually pressed. Such as this mouse simulator. http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=1943 I need to be able to have keys held down and pressed at the same time to use functions like Alt-Tab. I want to make it so that one button can do the work of two. Thank You |

| There is a command called 'keybd_event' or 'api_keybd_event' in the user32.decls I suppose you could use that. To see an example of it's usage, check this post: http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=53344 |

| That works, but the scan codes seem odd, is there any more explanation of where the scan codes go to make it press the key that you want. |

| What do you mean exactly ? I think it is best to use the first parameter, the 'virtual key code' You can find information about this command in the msdn: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms646304.aspx There is also a list of all the keycodes. You might wanna be cautious when using this command. The first time I used it, I passed all 255 keycodes to it because I was frustrated it didn't do anything.. That was a bad idea .. all sorts of keys were pressed (including the DEL key) and Windows logged out.. Luckily nothing was deleted. |
