$35-50 USD

Paid on delivery
Write a single screen app in C# that automatically opens another application and sends it messages to perform certain actions and also read information from the screen of the other app. I believe Spy++ may be involved in knowing what the handle of the Child windows are. Please bid only if you have developed something similar in C#.

MetaTrader is such a big app with a lot of features in the UI, which parts do you need to remotely control in the app? If there are only a couple of buttons or labels, I can help. In other case, I don't think anybody will care to do it for $50. I've strong experience on Windows API and I've made some apps to control other windows.

Hi, I have done this recently on .net and my application works stable for 5 months now. You are right with Spy++. This helps identifying the window handles, that will change with each restart of the target app. With my solution you will not have to use Spy++ manually, but the window will be identified by suitable attributes like window title or Window/control class names. The only problem could be reading from the screen. The preferred solution is that the target app can be forced writing the required data to a file or copying to the clipboard by sending keystrokes. My price is based on the assumption this will be possible. I have 10+ years of programming experience with C, C# VB, VBA. Would be glad if you are interested. Please provide the exact verion of your operating system (Win7/8/XP and 32/64 bit) and .net installation (4,4.5, full, server, client profile). Kind Regards, Mathias
