    Hi Anup,

    Here you are:

     

    Call PostMessage(..., MakeLParam(739, 441))

Function MakeLParam(x, y)
  MakeLParam = (x And &HFFFF&) Or (y * &H10000)
End Function

     

    But I still recommend using DblClick, because it does all the extra work for you - like bring the window to front, make sure it can receive clicks (that is, not overlapped by a modal window), and so on. Maybe DblClick just needs different coordinates. Try recording the click and see how it's recorded.

I have already tired but not clicking on same position that click on using PostMessage method.

And after convert that two Long value in a single long interger value and when passing that in PostMessageMethod.

 

It's clicking on right position.

 

I have converted that value in my old program VisualTest,  It's returing value 28902115 after convert  X = 739 and Y = 441.
