RSView32 & Virtual Keyboard

May 12, 2006 1 Replies

Hi all,



I'm developing a RSView32 app on a touch screen panel (no hard keyboard).



I'm trying to set up a string input field and my options are:



1) RSView32's native string input field
2) ActiveX text box

I want to use the ActiveX text box field, but I can't / don't know how to bring up the virtual keyboard that is native in RSView32. I can display the virtual keyboard if I use option 1 and select the appropriate check box in the display settings of my graphics screen.



Does anyone know how to bring up the RSView32 v-keyboard from VB?



Thanks. Ed



Ed,

I don't have RSView, so I can't give you the direct answer to your question, but Windows has an on-screen keyboard as one of the accessibility features. It sends keystrokes to the foreground window, and we've used it with iFix. The program is located at %SystemRoot%\system32\osk.exe.
