  Hi!

  I want to set the mouse position programmatically and do a click.

  I used the code bellow, but don't work.

  Private Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32.dll" (byval x as Long, byval y as Long) as Long

  SetCursorPos(50,50)

  I got an error: "A call to PInvoke function 'SetCursorPos' has unbalanced the stack" 

  How can I set the mouse position properly and do a click.

  Thanks!

  Given two buttons on a form, this code will move the mouse into the top right of the second button:

  Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

    Dim pt As Point

    pt.X = Button2.Right - 10

    pt.Y = Button2.Top + 10

    pt = PointToScreen(pt)

    Cursor.Position = pt

  End Sub

  Will endeavour to look at simulating a generic mouse click - I've only ever needed to simulate mouse clicks on known objects, via control.PerformClick.  I'll post back here if I find anything.

  HTH
