How do I send a program multiple TAB keypresses?

I am trying to imediately have my program refer to the parent of a 3rd party program and send instantly four TABS at once so the fourth text box with the fourth Tabstop will have the focus. How can I accomplish this.

ps I would have used the textbox's hWnd, but for the life of me I can not get to it.

Try this:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    SendKeys "{TAB 4}", 1
End Sub

Hi.

Before using Sendkeys you would need to give the 3rd party program the focus:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    AppActivate "3rd party program" 'This statement is Case-Sensitive
    SendKeys "{TAB 4}", 1
End Sub

---

All the best.
