A problem about DllCall

[52AT]

I want to send a keystroke to Notepad.

This is my script:

Dim $WM_KEYDOWN = 256,  $VK_TAB = 9
$hwnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
DLLCall("user32.dll","long","SendMessage", "hwnd", $hWnd, "long", $WM_KEYDOWN, "long", $VK_TAB, "long", 0)

but the code is't work.

(btw, the topic will probably moved so there's no need to create a new one)

Dim $WM_KEYDOWN = 256,  $VK_TAB = 9
$hwnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad")
DLLCall("user32.dll","long","SendMessage", "hwnd", $hWnd, "long", $WM_KEYDOWN, "long", $VK_TAB, "long", 0)

Saves a couple of minutes searching MSDN like crazy.

P.S. If you use [ autoit ] instead of [ code ] (remove the spaces) and [ /autoit ] instead of [ /code ], it makes it a bit clearer if you post complicated scripts.

P.P.S. Try the support forum as well.
