Hi, I'm finding that SendKeys is somewhat flakey, as noted by many people.

I'm using it in Excel to start and stop an external program, symbol "RLT",
but it does not always work, that is it will start but then not stop. The
same symbol "ST" is used for both actions.

The steps a

Application.SendKeys ("%")

Application.SendKeys ("RLT")

Application.SendKeys ("ST")

I have read that there is a VBA programmatic alterntive to this, can some
please guide me on how to write it?

Many thanks for all help. AM

What is the full name (path\filename) of the program?

Hi Garry, good to hear from you!

C:\RealTick\rt332.exe

As always, many thanks for your interest.

When RT332 is running, what is its window Title?
