Interacting with notepad


Recommended Posts

AS my thread was closed: https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/174011-sendmessage-wm_keydown-wm_keyup-do-not-work/

I will rephrase my question.

Source code: http://pastebin.com/dfsVpunu

How the code should be modified, to get it working in notepad?

The goal is, when the notepad is opened, active and focused, you press F2 (start the script) and the space character writes to the notepad.

The character must be written using DllCall SendMessage/PostMessage function.

Alternative ways like Send/ControlSend do not offer - it is research work.

I hope I do not break any forum rules, posting the question like this.

 

Thanks in advance!

neverlose,

I hope I do not break any forum rules, posting the question like this.

As you are reposting a question which was previously locked, you most certainly are. We know that the code works except in your "special" window - the nature of which you will not divulge. My offer is still open - prove the "special" window is legal and I will reopen the original thread. Meanwhile, I suggest you do not open a third one.

Edit: And the "special" window was indeed illegal.
