(C#) SendKeys

[Mo5]

Currently I'm using:

SendKeys.Send("{SCROLLLOCK}");

It "works" but the problem is that the Scroll lock LED just blinks and doesn't stay on. Any suggestions?

*bump* anyone?

what do you mean by "it blinks"? it blinks once and then stops? or keeps blinking?

just one short blink

it looks like send() only simulates a single keystroke in your application

to simulate the physical press of the scroll lock button, you should give a try at the win API keybd_event

Isn't that a C++ thing?

the code sample on msdn is C++, but it's a winapi so you can be sure you'll be able to use it in C#
