I am opening an NTVDM DOS window using VB 6 via shell. Then SendKeys to that window, however the dang keys are getting there too fast sometimes (ie Send Keys "ping etc etc etc" and instead of PING just NG gets there). I have the wait value set to true but it still gets there too fast. Is there anyway to set a pause before the Send Keys? I tried setting AppActivate to True but that errors out, so I'm not sure if that will work...any thoughts?
