Send keys to Battlefield 3

This is my first post on this forum ever, (just registered) after not receiving knowledgeable information/help form users on another forum. The task is simple send virtual keys to Battlefield 3, it has low level hook protection so that is out, tried

. and i have limited to zero knowledge on how to do this any other way, any ideas or code snippets would be welcomed

P.S i can read c++/c# and understand what's going on but i havn't learned to write it yet, i am however a very advanced vb.net coder, psuedo code or psuedo c++/vb.net,c# code would be excelent

bump, please i really need help with this

button1_cluck(...)
{
Sendkeys.Send("Sended String");
}

senkeys doesn't work, if windows api's aren't working then senkeys sure as hell isn't going to work (that was the first thing i tried actually haha)

That's because you can't use SendKeys to send keys to DirectX Application since it uses DirectInput (I think that's the name). After a little search on google I've found this... hope it helps you:

The code below will send two keypresses "Q" and "1".
PS: The DIK_ keycodes are from the dinput.h DirectX header file.

Code:

   INPUT inp[2];
   memset(inp,0,sizeof(INPUT));
   inp[0].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
   inp[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_SCANCODE;
   inp[1] = inp[0];
   inp[1].ki.dwFlags |= KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;      // keyup event

   inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = DIK_Q;      // inp[0] = keydown, inp[1] = keyup    
   SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));
   inp[0].ki.wScan = inp[1].ki.wScan = DIK_1;
   SendInput(2, inp, sizeof(INPUT));

pretty sure you need to hook the action buffer to send input to battlefield games.
