The call to use is keybd_event.
On the other issue, remeber that the dialog has control,
standard code in other forms wont run.
Furthermore, if you are using a menu to initiate it, then I have
across it, I cant remember the details, but it was a windows design
feature. Try tracing the code through and put some breakpoints. My
bet is that the key-sending-code you want does not execute until after
the menu is closed.
