Hi,

I posted the full question on StackOverFlow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3554171/cant-send-a-single-key-function-to-remote-desktop


Long story short:
Im able to send text to the remote computer but not single key strokes (meaning as keys, not as a string).

I think the solution is that i need to use the MapVirtualKey method, just dont know how to use is correctly...

In this example the scan code is 0, i assume it suppose to be the return value of MapVirtualKey...

If you could please help me with this example and ill be on my way:

public static void SimulateKeyDown(VirtualKeyCode keyCode)
 {
     var down = new INPUT();
     down.Type = (UInt32)InputType.KEYBOARD;
     down.Data.Keyboard = new KEYBDINPUT();
     down.Data.Keyboard.Vk = (UInt16)keyCode;
     down.Data.Keyboard.Scan =0
     down.Data.Keyboard.Flags = 0;
     down.Data.Keyboard.Time = 0;
     down.Data.Keyboard.ExtraInfo = IntPtr.Zero;

     INPUT[] inputList = new INPUT[1];
     inputList[0] = down;

     var numberOfSuccessfulSimulatedInputs = SendInput(1, inputList, Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(INPUT)));
     if (numberOfSuccessfulSimulatedInputs == 0) throw new Exception(string.Format("The key down simulation for {0} was not successful.", keyCode));
 }

Many Thanks Ahead,
Niv.
