send string to another windows application

yes you can, see this unit: http://megalib.com/books/51/sndkey32.htm

have you already worked with this unit?

there is an error in this line:

line 259  While (Ido begin

sorry, I thought it was the same as I'm using, apperantly not. Download mine here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~bosma/SendKeys.pas

please leave a message when you have it, so I can remove it again.

ok, how does it work?

I have a notepad opened and I put your code in a button, but nothing was sent :((

ok, I understood. I need to pass the name of my windows-

if the name saved is 'test', so it must be 'test' and not notepad.

is there a way to pass only the name of program?

I want to send a text to a babylon dictionary, I don't know if you know it.

>I need to pass the name of my windows
No, the window title. Or at least a fragment of it.
e.g. 'Editor' for Notepad. Just have a look at the title bar...

ok,

it is working. :)))

but I have another question, I will open a new thread.

Thanks

Hi,

you answer:

>I need to pass the name of my windows
No, the window title. Or at least a fragment of it.

but your question is

Titel:  send string to another windows application
... to send a string to another application and in this application simulate enter?
Imagine that I have a string in a edit and I want to send this string to my notepad, each time I
press my buttom it send to my notepad the text and a enter code

Maybe I misunderstand but I don't see where your wrote in your question you wanted to pass the name of your windows ....


Sorry.

Hi,

Thanks for the points.

Now I see where you're talking of .... passing the name of your windows .... Didn't have received this subject before psoting my answer.
