Question Autopress button question

Hello,

I am looking for a way so that when I activate the software or something that it will continuously press a button on my keyboard until I tell it to stop. Any ways to do this?

I am running Windows XP.

Hi,

If you have Visual Basic (VB.net) installed, you could write a simple program to do exactly that.

Re: Autopress button question

Sorry for the delay, I've had exams.

Does the "C" have to be a specific case? (e.g. Uppercase or lowercase)

Re: Autopress button question

K, I wipped this up in about 15 minutes, so it may have some bugs.
The .exe can be found in the /bin/release folder and it should open.

You'll need an application to which this program will send the key to and it must be the active application when the pressing starts.

Have fun and if you need anything else, please ask, or if there's anything that need's correcting.

DECLAIMER: For legal reasons, I have to insert this but by using the software, you're are agreeing that I, nor Tech Support Forums can be held liable for anything harm that may occur.

I can assure you though that I made the program myself and tested it, it works fine.

Re: Autopress button question

i'd like to request a program, but I have no idea how to program it.
when (variable key) is pressed down, while key is pressed down, press that key many times.

Basically a turbo button, for my keyboard... where I can set what button presses.

with a delay before it starts automatically pressing it, that I can also set.
in miliseconds, please.

thank you in advance, I've been looking all over the place and I can't find this ANYWHERE.

Hi dogoneshame, Welcome to TSF.

I would request you start another thread and explain with a bit more detail what you need.

Re: Autopress button question

hello, i was thinking of making another kind of thread but i decided not to since i have almost the same kind of problem. i need help in making a program the autopresses the "F9" but once every 2 seconds and the "enter" button once every quarter second. if its not not possible, even a program that would autopress the F9 and enter button simultaneously but very very quickly would be helpful. im sorry for the trouble but i wish someone could help me. ^^ thank you very much.

Hi soujiro08, welcome to TSF.

I've found out over time that if you don't have visual studio installed on your computer, the program's I make will not work.

What you are asking is very possible but if you don't have visual basic installed then there would be no point in me making it.

Do you have the program?

Re: Autopress button question

Hi hardsoda,

For future reference, please start a new thread even if your problem is similar to original posters. Thread 'hi-jacking' is looked down upon.

I think we'll be ok in this case cause this thread is now fairly old.

How often would you like the f1 key pressed?
