You can do it using autohotkey script, which you can lunch with LabVIEW (using "System Exec.vi").

The script you'll need is very simple:

Run C:\seaiotst
WinActivate
Send A{Enter}

Where "A" is your choice. You can dynamically change the script using LabVIEW for choosing anything else.

Good luck,

Amir

You could also try the Windows API method as I showed in the last example of this thread: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/URGENT-How-we-read-stdout-directly/m-p/802382?view=by_date_ascending
