Hey all, I'm using the Shell and SendKeys functions to send keys to the AW
Browser, right now my knowledge of the Sendkeys function goes as far as:

SendKeys "Hello AW! {enter}"

How do I simulate pressing and holding a key for X number of seconds?

Cheers,

You can't do that with SendKeys..

I think you'll have to use a Windows API for that. The SendKeys function of
Visual basic (I assume you're using that) only sends the key and you can't
set a delay time with it.

Just Message the window with WM_KEYDOWNs and WM_KEYUPs :)

By the way you should explain what language you're using, when you post such a message, although we all guessed it was VB
