    SendKeys within application

    I am wondering if it's possible to use SendKeys only within the application, even if the application is not in focus. Any similar function to send keystrokes to the application could also work. I tried with SendMessage but if the program is not in focus it will not work. Any ideas?

    The best idea is to actually explain why you need this. Sendkeys is never advised.

    Yeah, I'd have to say that the question doesn't make much sense to me. Who is sending the keys if it isn't the application? If it is the application, then what do you mean by "SendKeys within application"?
