Sending Ctrl+C to a thread

Hi,

I am running a DOS script in memory using a thread. However, if I want
to interrupt this script and stop it, what should I do? In a normal
DOS window you'd press CTRL+C but I do not have the DOS window.
Aborting the thread works but throws an error that I then have to
capture. Ideally, i'd like to somehow send the key sequence CTRL+C to
the thread which passes it onto the DOS window. Is this possible???

Hugh
