TelNet and SendKeys

[LyallJ]

I am shelling out to a telnet. thats cool and every thing. I got it to work right. But for some reason, I cant get the sendkeys to work, for the username and addy. Heres some of the code that i have so far. Any Ideas??

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Shell "telnet XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX"
SendKeys "username{ENTER}"
SendKeys "Password{ENTER}"
End Sub

I just can't seem to get it to work. Thanks in advance

Never mind yall, i got it. thanks to the link below. i found that sendkeys will not work with dos, but that this code fakes it out or something. it works, but i have not had a chance to pick it apart to see how it works.


Thanks Again, and props to the ppl that wrote this code
