I read 20 forums along with MSDN site, and still nothing, how do you I use "SendKeys.Send" with NUMPAD numbers ? It says use this

Code: Select all

SendKeys.Send "{NUMPAD9}"

dont know why, but it is not working, it says Wrong key, something like that

[smashapps]

SendKeys.Send(Keys.NumPad0)

try that

[Vikhedgehog]

Code: Select all

SendKeys.Send "{NUMPAD9}"

Maybe try

Code: Select all

SendKeys.Send("{NUMPAD9}")

Nope won't change a bit

[smashapps]

my one should work fine

[M1z23R]

It should but it doesn't '-.- you can try it :/

It sends for example if i set keys.numpad0 it sends "96"

[M1z23R]

Finally found it :/ Had to use APIs

Code: Select all

Private Declare Sub keybd_event Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal bVk As Byte, ByVal bScan As Byte, _
ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)

Private Const KEYEVENTF_KEYUP As Long = &H2
Private Const KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY As Long = &H1

Const VK_MENU = &H12 'ALT
Const VK_NUMPAD0 = &H60

Private Sub PressKey
  keybd_event VK_NUMPAD0, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0  ' release 0
  keybd_event VK_NUMPAD0, 0, 0, 0  ' press 3
End Sub

You can't send a numpad key using SendKeys.SendWait because there is no single character or key sequence to represent one of these keys.

You would have to simulate the key press in order to get the matching result.

*bump* how can i tweak this so it works for other numpads too? And modify so i can have multiple numpad event under a single event? Like when i press f5, it will push numpad 2 and when i press f4 it will push numpad 3

You can specify the other numpad keycodes in the bScan paramater.

GetAsyncKeyState and RegisterHotKey can be used for hotkey support.
