MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD (Structures)
 
.
Summary
The MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD structure is used in a console INPUT_RECORD structure to report mouse input events.

C# Definition:

  [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
  [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)]
  public struct MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD
  {
    [FieldOffset(0)]
    public COORD dwMousePosition;
    [FieldOffset(4)]
    public MouseButtonState dwButtonState;
    [FieldOffset(8)]
    public ControlKeyState dwControlKeyState;
    [FieldOffset(12)]
    public MouseEventFlags dwEventFlags;
  }

  [Flags]
  public enum MouseButtonState
  {
    FROM_LEFT_1ST_BUTTON_PRESSED = 0x1,
    RIGHTMOST_BUTTON_PRESSED = 0x2,
    FROM_LEFT_2ND_BUTTON_PRESSED = 0x4,
    FROM_LEFT_3RD_BUTTON_PRESSED = 0x8,
    FROM_LEFT_4TH_BUTTON_PRESSED = 0x10
  }

  [Flags]
  public enum ControlKeyState
  {
    RIGHT_ALT_PRESSED = 0x1,
    LEFT_ALT_PRESSED = 0x2,
    RIGHT_CTRL_PRESSED = 0x4,
    LEFT_CTRL_PRESSED = 0x8,
    SHIFT_PRESSED = 0x10,
    NUMLOCK_ON = 0x20,
    SCROLLLOCK_ON = 0x40,
    CAPSLOCK_ON = 0x80,
    ENHANCED_KEY = 0x100
  }

  [Flags]
  public enum MouseEventFlags
  {
    MOUSE_MOVED = 0x1,
    DOUBLE_CLICK = 0x2,
    MOUSE_WHEELED = 0x4,
    MOUSE_HWHEELED = 0x8
  }

VB Definition:

    <StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)> _
    Public Structure MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD
        <FieldOffset(0)>
        Public dwMousePosition As COORD
        <FieldOffset(4)>
        Public dwButtonState As UInteger
        <FieldOffset(8)>
        Public dwControlKeyState As UInteger
        <FieldOffset(12)>
        Public dwEventFlags As UInteger
    End Structure

User-Defined Field Types:

None.

UPDATE:

This started working once I changed the FOCUS_EVENT_RECORD to take a uint rather than a bool. Prior to that MOUSE_EVENT_RECORD.dwMousePosition.X was always 0
