The issue is how the mouse click event is handled by the DX application.<br />
If it is via the DIRECTINPUT device, that the event will not be got and thus handled.<br />

Public objDX As New DirectX8<br />
Public objDI As DirectInput8<br />
Set objDIDev = objDI.CreateDevice(&quot;guid_S<wbr />ysMouse&quot;)<br />
Call objDIDev.SetCommonDataForm<wbr />at(DIFORMA<wbr />T_MOUSE)<br />
Call objDIDev.SetCooperativeLev<wbr />el(frmCanv<wbr />as.hwnd, _<br />

You need DIRECTINPUT Class Functions to handle mouse events in your game.

Im trying to send a mouse click to a certain area in a directx game. Generating a mouse click in any other app (not DX) works fine with this code:<br />
<br />
&nbsp;Call PostMessage(CLng(param(1))<wbr />, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, 1, CLng(param(2)) + CLng(param(3)) * &amp;H10000)<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Call PostMessage(CLng(param(1))<wbr />, WM_LBUTTONUP, 1, CLng(param(2)) + CLng(param(3)) * &amp;H10000)<br />
<br />
I even used Spy++ and the MouseClicks do not register. MouseMove and KeyPress all come through, but mouse clicks dont.<br />
<br />
Any idea how i can generate a mouseclick on a DX app. thx

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
