Command keyboard

[Nunes]

How could I send a command to the computer, as if I had pressed two keys. Example CTRL + I

I want to execute execute CTRL + I, according to a schedule that I will define.

Hi Nunes,

have you searched this forum on "simulate keypress events"? There are a lot of threads on this topic!

You will find mainly two options:

1. Use a Windows DLL call (or a .NET call) to simulate a keypress.
2. Use some 3rd party tool (like AutoIt) to do that for you…

As Gerd said, use user32.dll:keybd_event to send key-presses one after the other... Ctrl + i...
