Default simulate pressing enter not working

hi,

i have the following. it basically puts the focus on the IE window. but im
trying to take it a step further by simulating hitting the ENTER key in the
IE window. i manually tested hitting ENTER in the IE window and it does what
i want but for some reason it does not work programmatically...

If lHwnd < 0 Then
ShowWindow lHwnd, SW_SHOWNORMAL
Dim XT As Long
XT = BringWindowToTop(lHwnd) 'brings the IE window to top
Windows.Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
SendKeys "{ENTER}"

thanks in advance,
geebee
