how to use vkey with keyboard ENTER key instead of press button

[amandarila]

Hi Ni Engineers,

In stead of using Send button, after i key command in a string control i wanna just press ENTER key in keyboard.

I delete the Send button, just use string binding VKey Event to trigger, can it work ?

can any body give me a clue?

thanks a million.

It can work. What are you having problems with? Have you just tried to create an event structure and handling the "Key Down" event?

[amandarila]

Yeah, i do want to creat a Key Down Event for string control to auto send the command to serial port.

so as to avoid pressing button.

I use your idea, and build a small vi, it seems work, but still exist some error, maybe i need use the property of updating when typing.

thanks.

Please indicate what this "some error" is. Please post your VI and describe what is not working.
