Has anyone used LabVIEW to send keystroke data to an open application in another NT window? I have launched the application with System Exec but it requires an occasional keystroke (F1) before it completes. The program is designed to run interactively in a DOS window and does so flawlessly until it needs the first keyboard entry. I seem to recall VB has such a feature.
