Subject:shortcut macros and VB From:Michael Simoni <msimoni -at- omware -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com Date:Mon, 11 Oct 1999 09:55:55 -0700
Hello,
I have been lurking on the list for a while and learned a great deal from
you all. Now, I hope that someone can give me a little assistance. I have
been asked to provide shortcut links from online help to various windows and
dialog boxes in the program.
Having never used the shortcut macro, I did a little research and thought
"no problem". However, after using a spy utility I realized the wParams I
was getting were different from the examples I had seen. I figured it was
the language, Visual Basic.
I checked the archive for information about using the shortcut macro with
VB, but I found no answer. So. Does anybody have experience using the
shortcut macro with Visual Basic? Or can you point me to someone who has
done this?
Thanks,
Michael
