Answer 1

I assume this is related to your other thread. It is still not clear if the "Save As" dialog is in your application (process) or in a different process.

Answer 2

i use timer but it enters every program on windows that mouse go move on!

because the command <sendkey.send("{ENTER}")> is in the timer tick event!

and it execute this command on all programs.

i thinks when i put the code in a timer thick event, it can't detect "Save Az" window ! but i want when it detect a save as window then enters it.

any idea?!

Answer 3

Bahar,

Use timer to execute code in background:

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
    base.OnLoad(e);

    _timer = new Timer();
    _timer.Interval = 1000;
    _timer.Tick += new EventHandler(TimerTick);
    _timer.Start();

}

void TimerTick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Text = DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString();
}

private System.Windows.Forms.Timer _timer;

Your code should go into TimerTick method. This method will be executed on a UI thread so you're free to modify form's contents at will. Timer will execute once every second. You can change this interval by modifying the line:

_timer.Interval = 1000;

Interval is measured in milliseconds.
