How to press the mouse button?

I think you''d need to send the WM_LBUTTONDOWN message if you want to send a left-button click and a WM_RBUTTONDOWN message if you want to send a right-button click.

If something sounds stupid but works, it's not stupid

How to press the mouse button?

Look up mouse_event() in MSDN.

<update>
Some examples for you:

        // Left click with mouse_event():mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0);mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, 0, 0, 0, 0);// Right click:mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0);mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP, 0, 0, 0, 0);    

This has not been testen, but it should work.
