• UncleSam89 Is there any way to autoclick with the mouse?

  Hi. It's me again. I was wondering, (and I'll probably get a simple answer that I could've figured out on my own.) is there any way to make the mouse move to a certain point on the screen, and then click by itself Thanks. This thread shows a program that displays the mouse cursor position, even if it is located over another app's window. Note that this is almost certainly not what you want, a window could be located anywhere, depending on the position of the window frame. Search the forums for "FindWindow" and "EnumChildWindows". Also, learn how to use Spy++ to discover window properties. You don't physically have to mouse the mouse, just generate the messages as though the ...Show All

• NoEgo counting digits in an integer

  I need to count the number of digits in an integer input by the user. In other words if the user enters 101010, I need to obtain the value of 6, because there are 6 digits in this number. Can someone help me Convert the integer to a string and use the Length property. If you are using an input from a textbox or inputbox, it's already a string.

• Naldai_ VB6 Forms in .NET 3.0 application

  Hi, I've seen a few people talk about how it is possible to extend a VB6 application with .NET forms. However, what I haven't found yet is people talking about hosting VB6 controls and forms in a .NET exe. Is this possible The scenario I have been asked to look at is one where we want to take our existing large VB6 windows app and give it a new shell initially, ultimately convert all to .NET. The application has many many forms as well as quite a few activex business objects. Ideally what I wanted to do was to write a new shell for the application (shell as in main UI, menus and basic naviation) in WPF and then use the existing VB6 forms and contained logic once a menu or command has been selected. I'm not convinced whether thi ...Show All
