SendKeys syntax problem
 

Can anyone please help.
I am performing a search, that part of the code is working fine.
When my result cell is activated, I would like to select both it, and
the cell to the immediate right of it.
I've tried using SendKeys, but I'm having difficulties with the syntax
obviously.

Code:
--------------------
Application.SendKeys +("{RIGHT}")
--------------------

I'm using the "plus"sign "+" for the SHIFT key to hold and select, but
I'm obviously writing the {RIGHT} portion of the code incorrectly, as I
get a run time error.
Any assitance would be much appreciated. This is driving me nuts. Thanx
in Advance.
