I usually use AutoIt. PyWinAuto (http://pywinauto.openqa.org/) is probably the best-known of the windows solutions out there. I thought there was another main one, but I can't find it at the moment. Before you go haring off looking for a new tool, have you tried getting the control ID using the AutoIt Winspy-thingy? I've been able to use that to send messages directly to individual controls, rather than the window, which has helped me in similar situations. Hope this helps, and let us know how it works out!
