You are looking at implementing a global Keyboard hook to accomplish this. Given that you have posted that you are looking at VB, I am making the assumption that you are using VB.NET. If you are, there's a library here that should be able to help you. GitHub - Visual-Vincent/InputHelper: A .NET friendly library for simulating mouse and keyboard input.[^]
