many thanks all

Jeff,

It uses the same source code as Antonio Mart explained, thanks anyhow

not sure if this will help but have a look:

A ti siempre, ¡ faltaría más !

Romeo,

#define WM_SYSCOMMAND 0x0112
#define SC_CLOSE 0xF060

to check if the keyboard is open you can do:

Code: Select all  Expand view

function IsKeyboardVisible()

return FindWindow( "IPTip_Main_Window" ) != 0
 

Antonio, thanks!

i get error with:

PostMessage(hWndInputPanel, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_CLOSE, 0)

what are WM_SYSCOMMAND and SC_CLOSE ?

And how can i detect if the kb is loaded ?

Hi

Romeo,

We may need to use:

EnumProcesses() http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682629(v=vs.85).aspx

and

TerminateProcess() http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms686714(v=vs.85).aspx

it does not work.

I need something like dos command: TASKKILL ..... to end the tabtip.exe execution process

tks aany

SendMessage( FindWindow( 0, "tabtip" ), WM_CLOSE ) // or Name of program( in window ).

Best regards,
