For attempting to make a bot in VB for MS, send key is blocked.
Could this work instead?

I dont think so (not sure)
but you could also try keybd_event() to send keys
cant send strings though....

thanks for the response. i though no one would ever answer.
Even if Printline wont work, ide still like to know how to obtain the file numbers of active programs.

btw, ill try playing with the keybd_event........

The above wouldn't work. PrintLine simply overwrites the file. You need to use SendKey or PostMessage.

You don't ever send "strings" to applications. It's probably a wrapper function that loops through the string and converts it into multiple messages.

its quite fustrating. im trying to teach myself of internet resources but they are all really.... i dont know how to describe them.
they tell me functions, sometime the syntax but in a different language (i mean seriously, i search on MSDN of VB2005 and the syntax it gives me is either No syntax or in C++....).

ill keep trying though.
can hex be sent into a program? i dont know how that will help but...
