Thanks for your response--and good information to know. However, I do need a solution for Windows... Hmmmmm.

Hello,

This might be a dumb question, but is there a way in LiveCode to simulate sending keyboard keys to non-LiveCode applications/windows? For example, if I am running Firefox and want to send a CTRL-T in order to open a new tab, is there a way that I can simulate the CTRL and T being pressed and then send it to a particular instance of a Firefox Window accordingly?

Thanks,

- Boo

Boo to you too . . .  :)

I just had a poke in the Dictionary and found

send to program

which should do the trick; although 'tis Mac only . . .  :(
