I have an application that opens a word document. I want to be able to send instuction back to that other application (which is not an microsoft application) before word closes. Is there a way to do that?
I did review the shell function and sendkeys but the problem with those solutions are that
1.) The application has already been launched and is running in the background so I do not have a handle to it. Even getobject won't work because the application does not support OLE automation (anything that is not office usually doesn't)
2.) The button I need to press in the application doesn't have a sortcut key and must be clicked (did I mention that this application sucks!!!).
3.) I sort of looked into the API calls but I'm not really sure where to begin. I can't efven get a reference to the application to force it to do something.
Thanks for all your help anyway.
I'm gonna post in the VB forum, perhaps someone else will have a solution there.
