Xailer & OZ Software

Can Xailer send a Hotkey, for example an Ctrl S or a Ctrl C, to an application?
Assuming that you have the window handle or title in a variable, how do you do this?

Part of the solution:
Local oShell := CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
//
oShell:SendKeys( "sample" )
Tested with windows xp.

Yeah, it looks like there's no easy way, other than to execute an
external COM.
Thanks for the Shell sample Juan, I think I'll go the AutoIt route.

You can use the windows API function SendMessage() to send a WM_CHAR message to a specific window (control) knowing its handle. BTW, focus should also be given (WM_SETFOCUS) prior to that.
Regards,

You can also use AutoIt like this:
Local oKey := CreateObject( "AutoItX3.Control" )
with functions oKey:Send(), oKey:WinList(), oKey:WinExist() and
oKey:WinActivate()

Ah, cool. You can use SendMessage directly from an Xailer app? That's
great, thanks Ignacio.
