Hi From my project in C#, I can open a dial up connection which I have made before.
I want the button "connect" pressed without pressing the enter button.
How can I do that in a simple way?
may be it's like virtual keyboard!
Tnx anyway

That depends on your criteria how you want to press that button and under which condition.You can automate enter button button by using..

C#

SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}");

Or,programmatically press that button like:

C#

connectButton.PerformClick();
