sending text to other applications
i want to activate and send keystrokes to the textbox of an application that runs on a browser from my visual basic form.i can use the URL of the application running on the browser to accomplish this task. like the block code below
Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.Visible = True
IE.NAVIGATE "http:www.sometext..."
but instead of using the URL i want to use the title on the browser to activate or access the application.the title is the title displayed on the title bar, like "VBForums - Post New Thread - Microsoft Internet Application"
please anyone to help
Re: sending text to other applications
You may want the "FindWindow" function to get a window handle (hWnd of the browser and then send keystrokes to it.
Look at www.allapi.net and search for "FindWindow" to get declaration, usage and sample for this function.
