Here is my scenario. The user will be filling out the fields on the hosted screen. I need to find a way to capture every keystroke and send each character to the textbox. I tried doing it with KeyDown event and
vt1.ScrapeText(vt1.CursorPosition.Y,vt1.CursorPosition.X-1,1). But this gives me only the character before the last. Is there any way to capture the last entered character into the VT control?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The KeyDown event gives you each keypress exactly as you want. Check out the "External Client" sample for a working demo.

Thanks. I don't know what I was thinking. I also found out that this can be achieved with vt1_Telnet_EndReceive event and vt1.ScrapeText(vt1.CursorPosition.Y,vt1.CursorPosition.X-1,1). But why bother. Thanks again.
