Here's are a few sample commands for a starting point...
DECLARE Sleep IN WIN32API INTEGER nMilli
LOCAL oShell AS WScript.Shell

oShell = CREATEOBJ('Wscript.Shell')

oShell.AppActivate("whatever")
Sleep(1000)

*!*	**	Login
*!*	oShell.SendKeys(lcPassword)
*!*	Sleep(1000)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("{TAB}")
*!*	Sleep(1000)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("{ENTER}")
*!*	Sleep(1000*10)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("%") &&  % = Alt (active menu)
*!*	Sleep(1000)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("F")
*!*	Sleep(1000)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("O")
*!*	Sleep(1000)
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("{ENTER}")
*!*	oShell.SendKeys("{TAB}")
*!*	Sleep(1000)
oShell = NULL
Hope this helps,
Guy



>>I have another app running that has a window up whose title is 'Password' so I can find it. However, how can I send a keystroke to it programmatically once I locate the window?
