[.NET]SendKeys.Send Inf. Loop

[floof]

So to keep it simple, I'm basically integrating a Compiler into a GUI with a button to send Text commands to CMD

Code:

Private Sub btnCPL_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCPL.Click

 

        Shell("CMD.exe")       SendKeys.Send(txtSCOCL.Text)       SendKeys.Send(" 0x7DD1E61C ")       SendKeys.Send(txtC.Text)       SendKeys.Send(" ")       SendKeys.Send(txtOUT.Text)       SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}")

End Sub

 

Problem: When I run the first compile, it's flawless. But upon clicking again, it appears the

SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}")

line gets stuck on my Compile button and constantly opens Command Promt (CMD.exe) over and over (non-stop)

 

 

 

So the question is, would there be a line to add after the {ENTER} to stop/rest the script?

You could probably use a Boolean and after you press the button the first time set it to true after initializing it as false then surround you code with conditional statement that checks whether the operation has been carried out. If the Boolean is true then it has.
