Hi there

I need to switch between 'standard' and 'numpad' keyboards from legacy 16 bit code

I've got access to PostMessage so displaying and hiding the keyboard works fine

But, I don't have access to the registry - any chance of adding a mechanism (using PostMessage) so that I can do the switch?

Or maybe somebody has a bright idea of another way to do it

Cheers

Dave

Can you use message WM_COPYDATA?

Have a nice day

char  KeyboardName[80];

COPYDATASTRUCT MyCDS;



   KeyboardName = "Standard";

// Fill the COPYDATA structure

// 

   MyCDS.dwData = 1;          // function identifier

   MyCDS.cbData = sizeof( KeyboardName );  // size of data

   MyCDS.lpData = &KeyboardName;           // data structure

//

// Call function, passing data in &MyCDS

//

   HWND hwDispatch = FindWindow( "TFirstForm", "CKeyboardFirstForm" );

   if( hwDispatch != NULL )

      SendMessage( hwDispatch,

                   WM_COPYDATA,

                   (WPARAM)(HWND) NULL,

                   (LPARAM) (LPVOID) &MyCDS );
