Need help on checkbox issue.

To send keyboard input you can use the SendInput() function.

    INPUT       Input = {0};
    SendInput(1, &Input, sizeof(Input));

how should i declare the Z key i want to input to?

INPUT Z_KEY;
			
			


if (checked)
			{ 
				SetTimer(hwnd, IDT_TIMER1, 30000, NULL);
                                                                Z_KEY.ki.wVk = 0x5A;
                                                                Z_KEY.type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
			                SendInput(1, Z_KEY, sizeof(INPUT));
			}
            else
			{
				KillTimer(hwnd, IDT_TIMER1);
                                                                Z_KEY.ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
                                                                SendInput(1, Z_KEY, sizeof(INPUT));
			}

like this?

I guess. I have never used SendInput(). Try it out and see what happens.

[sky1in5]

if (checked)
			{ 
				SetTimer(hwnd, IDT_TIMER1, 30000, NULL);
				INPUT Z_KEY[1];
				Z_KEY[1].ki.wVk = 0x5A;
                Z_KEY[1].type = INPUT_KEYBOARD;
			    SendInput(1, Z_KEY, sizeof(INPUT));
			    
			}
            else
			{
				KillTimer(hwnd, IDT_TIMER1);
				INPUT Z_KEY[1];
				Z_KEY[0].ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_KEYUP;
				SendInput(1, Z_KEY, sizeof(INPUT));
			}

i will try it out later. will let u know asap. thanks jose.
