Hallo Bart
 BB> Problem 1: I need to determine if a given DOS program is running
 BB> (only know  the .exe name, lets say wp.exe (while in fact it is not
 BB> wp...)) and get a handle to it.
FindWindow API function.
 BB> Problem 2: I need to send keys to the above mentioned DOS program
 BB> to  simulate keystrokes.
SendMessage(WM_KEY...  something like that. I never got it working with 
notepad being the target. Finding windows was easy, sending keystrokes never 
worked. I tried SendMessage and PostMessage with several messages (WM_CHAR, 
WM_KEYDOWN, etc.). However, this should be the way to go. If you get it 
working, please post the code.
Groeten, Martin.
