Is there any way to send a virtual key to the control that have focus.

I tried Delphi keybd_event, but that is not a function in EWB .

This is how I send keystroke in my windows app, I get the handle using TWinControl.Handle, but none of this is available in EWB.

procedure SendDownChar(hwnd: THandle; ch: Char);
var
 lparam, wparam: Integer;
begin
 wparam := VkKeyScan(ch);
 lparam := 1;
 SendMessage(hwnd, WM_KEYDOWN, wparam, lparam);
end;

Thanks,

What are you trying to accomplish?  

You can trap KeyDownEvents and do things like move focus... you can fill in existing controls with edit1.text := edit1.text + 'A'; for example.

But Sending Keystrokes inside a Web Browse is probably a big security issue.  And I am pretty sure there are other way to do what you think you need to do by Sending Keystrokes....

The application is for a Touchscreen so no keyboard and mouse is present, like a Kiosk.

I created a Dialog with a keyboard that will popup when a field is entered.

Then it looks like I have to copy the TEdit.text and add the letter that is pressed then add it back to the TEdit.text.
