    Need helps in Sendkey

    Hi,
    I have a field in an application that I can't tab or shift+tab to get there. How can I navigate to that field using Sendkey?

    Thanks,

    PhiL

    Maybe you can use the FindWindow and FindWindowEx APIs to get the handle of the field you want to set the focus to and then use the SetFocus API to set it?

    Thank you all for the tips. Now I just have to find out more on how to use the above API's to do the job.
