I think you're going to need to use several API calls to do this, at a minimum, you'll need to know the hWnd of the messagebox so that you can call SetFocus() to point the keyboard focus to the target window, and then issue a keybd_event, since keybd_event doesn't set the context that the keystroke is processed in.
