Re: PostMessage() Error
Look, this thread has been going on for three days now, and at every step
you are requiring the volunteers here to extract one tiny bit of
information at a time. We CANNOT read your mind. We do not know what you
are trying to accomplish.
The fact that you mentioned "plotting" in one message suggests to me that
you are trying to trigger some action in another application. That is
CERTAINLY something that you have not mentioned previously. If you are
trying to simulate human activity in another app, then you have to
simulate
ALL of the human activity. For example, if you have to enter text and
click a button, then your app will have to enter text and click a button.
You're doing the "enter text" part now, but not the click a button.
Tell us exactly what you are trying to do. THEN we can offer meaningful
help.

I am talking about Gnuplot wgnuplot.exe, yes, it supports edit control.
not sure how to get the standard input into clickboard and then simulate
paste to GUI application?

Not sure why OP isn't using pgnuplot, which implements exactly this
message-sending stuff as a workaround to the fact that you can't have input
piped in unless you are a console app, in which case you get a console even
when not needed.
