Hi. I'd like to use sendkeys to send to notepad any keystrokes a user enters while in a smarterm session. However, all the examples of this function I have seen all seem to be for sending pre-determined text. Can it be used to send recorded keystrokes? If not, is there any other way of coding this? Thank you.

You can send keystrokes, but it is highly inefficient and prone to error (and the target window HAS to be the top most window, so the terminal could not be active while the sendkey command was executing.) A better way is to use the metafile functions from the win32 api (if you want to record everything that happens), otherwise, you could simply write the keystrokes to a file. Hope this helps some, Chi Happens

Thanks for the comments. I know you don't advise the sendkey method, but do you know what I would need to do to try it? What I mean is what do I type instead of a string for the first argument?

You would use a variable. This would contain the information you grabbed from the app that hosts the VBA run-time. So something like (I don't have smartterm, so this should be considered psuedocode): SendKeys SmartTerm.Terminal.Document.All Chi Happens
