Our office is using a finance application. It contains a big worksheet to calculate the pay for a given employee. It contains different variables for benefits calculation. I wrote a program to directly modify the database field values directly. But the problem is that the screen contains the logic to calculate the final calculation.

When I re-open the screen after changing values in the database, I can see the values changed but the calculation is still old. If I click on a field and press the tab key, the form re-calculates the value. Is it possible to write a simple tool to automate the process on a click of a button?

I have a .Net application that I am developing using VB.Net. I am attempting to control a remote application. I found a similar post in this forum upon reading the values of a list box of a remote program. I am using that as reference and have made progress. Presently, I am stuck in attempting to trigger the click event of the list box. I am also new to this Windows Messaging API system. How can I trigger the click event on an item for a remote List box?

We have a finance application, that has many buttons and controls. There is a screen in the application that shows a lengthy list of reports in a big List Box. Every time we need to run a report, we have to scroll and select the required reports. This is taking a huge amount of time as we have to dig through this list.

I have heard that you can write a program that could send commands to another application. What I want to do is to write a small program that will accept a list of reports from the user via typing them and then automatically selecting them in the finance application.

For this I need read the values of the remote application.

How can I do this ?

I am using W# ith Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5. I am writing a desktop application for calculating variances in a set of values. I have read about the new Microsoft .Net Framework technology called Lambda functions.

I tried this in the application where I had written a loop to find numbers that are fully devisable by nine. The application compiles correctly, but when I run the program I am getting a runtime exception. Is it because I am now using a lambda function in the program?
