OK The fallowing C# code works just fine!

uint intReturn = SendInput(1, inputs, System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.SizeOf(inputs[0]));
if (intReturn != 1)
{
throw new Exception("Could not send key: " + scanCode);
}
}
public static KEYBDINPUT createKeybdInput(ushort wVK, uint flag)

}
... here is the problem I can send a key stroke to an app, BUT sending key "1" (not the numeric keypad but the regular numbers) ala PressKeyDown('1') does not work as expected instead SendInput returns that indeed 1 key was pressed, BUT the application is receiving the following 5 key down messages !!!!

I can't for the life of me figure out why this is. Can you make a suggestion what could be causing this? I am using Windows vista 32Bit, English US KB layout on a HP laptop nx9420
Sigh :( There is nothing wrong with the send input code. grrrrr it was with another part of my application that was feeding redundant data.
I am trying to create a app that will allow me to play world of warcraft using my 360 controller. (spamming keys for 3 hrs in naxx can't be good for carpral tunnel :P) And am using a library that i wrote that loads in key bindings from a xml file for the 360 game pad and gives them friendly names. For example "Jump" -> maps to -> "ButtonA" etc
in that bindings file I had redundant entries for the ButtonA on the game pad that is why i was getting the additional keydown events firing. So nothing to do with the sendinput code at all. /facepalm /smashfaceondesk
So the problem is now cleared? I'm glad to know. Sorry I didn't check comments as I didn't expect people would comment. BTW, sounds cool to apply this on warcraft.
I would like to Point out a small mistake. Though the program works perfectly well. The VK Codes for 'a' - 'z' are from 0x41 - 0x5a so in the getCVal function, you should be adding 0x41 instead of 0x61. Otherwise the program is perfect :D Thanks a lot helped me so so so much!!!
