Hi!
I`m using sendkeys to an application. The sent key do a command at application, and it take a time to process the command (from 1 to 50 seconds). I only can send the next keys after the application end its job. I thought the only solution is to use the use of CPU from the application, to send key only when it go to 0%.
To the sendkeys I have a string with the name of the window of the application. I think this code is what I need, but it`s not working. It dont use the default VBA and I`m not good with this strange structure. Do you can help me on using this program to my case? For example, we can use a notepad and send keys (CTRL F) to find something at a big txt file, waiting it to end the search to send the next keys..
Any kind of help is welcome.. Thanks a lot!

Hi leandroct and welcome.

Before posting can you please read the rules found here - in particular, rule 15 which states that "Threads that have been inactive (no new posts) for one month or more should be considered archive-only and should be left alone (except by the thread starter). In some cases it may be acceptable to reopen a thread but the moderators have the final say. If your question is similar to another one add a link in your thread back to the older one and explain the relevance to yours." Necroposting is considered bad etiquette and most users will tend to ignore these posts as a result.

I suggest you create a new thread and link back to this one as the rules suggest. I would also point you in the direction of MSDN and WMI (Win32) structure and classes. A combination of these should help find the info you want.

One question would be though, why do you need to send keys to a text file? Could you not simply open the document within your program saving all this hastle?
