I have a problem talking to a dos shell exe.

I can open the program but I can not operate the program from a VB6 program I am making. The dos run program uses the alt key then a letter to go through the menu. Everywhere that I go to find code to write no one has a clue.

The Dos program has to run and be available while so the vb program can control it.

Has anyone ever Come across this problem before?
