Hi!

I am trying to programmatically generate keyboard strokes by using the
following instructions:

keybd_event('A', 0, 0, 0);
keybd_event('B', 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

which work correctly. My problem is: if I try to generate characters other
then "A-Z" and "0-9", the "keyboard_event" does not work correctly. The
following code:

keybd_event('+', 0, 0, 0);
keybd_event('+', 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
...
keybd_event('{', 0, 0, 0);
keybd_event('}', 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

does not work.

Can anybody help me with some working piece of code?

Thank in advance.

Henry
