How do I simulate the pressing of the "enter" key with a batch file program? Thanks, Luacc

Hi: Friend at a co. used to use a utility called 'stuff' for simulating keystrokes in batch files. Don't have it on hand, but try following link: http://www.filelibrary.com/Contents/DOS/51/5.html Two from above site look promising: kbd.zip and jckey_io.zip. Not sure if is what your looking for, but may be of use. HTH

This is good :- http://www.filegate.net/bfds/key-fake.zip

I am not much on batch files; so, I have probably misunderstood the question. However, I think you emulate a key stroke when you go to a new line. Batch files are like the Autoexec.bat which is in fact a special case batch file. Take C: as the keystroke (or two keystrokes in this case) Path=C:...etc. D: DOSKEY In the above three lines the computer would establish a path, switch to drive D: and install DOSKEY. So you have pressed enter in effect by going to a new line.

Hey,Guy/Gal! Key-fake.com is a great old utility! It was published in PC Magazine in 1985. To simulate an 'enter' key press simply type: "Key-Fake 13" (without the quotes.) It works great for sending command line arguments to DOS programs; however, I haven't had much luck using it with Windows programs (could be my fault.) To use it is to love it.

I got key-fake and havent been able to use it How do i load this into a batch file. I've tried in the batch file by KEY-FAKE (all my strings minus the () ) and that just displays the strings and doesn't do a thing. Any help is appreciated. thanks biggs
