I have a C# console program which starts calculator and simulates key presses. How do I programmatically press Enter?
[DllImport("USER32.DLL", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)]
public static extern IntPtr FindWindow(string lpClassName,
string lpWindowName);
// Activate an application window.
[DllImport("USER32.DLL")]
public static extern bool SetForegroundWindow(IntPtr hWnd);
// Send a series of key presses to the Calculator application.
private void StartCalculator()
{
Process.Start("calc.exe");
IntPtr calculatorHandle = FindWindow("CalcFrame","Calculator");
if (calculatorHandle == IntPtr.Zero)
{
return;
}
SetForegroundWindow(calculatorHandle);
SendKeys.SendWait("111");
SendKeys.SendWait("*");
SendKeys.SendWait("11");
SendKeys.SendWait("=");
SendKeys.SendWait(" ");//how press enter?
}
Using the onKeypress event The onKeyPress event is fired when a user presses the key on a keyboard, so that by using this we can trigger the button click by pressing a Enter key. The keyCode for the Enter key is 13.
Taken from SendKeys.Send Method
SendKeys.SendWait("~"); // How to press enter?
or
SendKeys.SendWait("{ENTER}"); // How to press enter?
