Grab and pass text to another programs textbox field

[brad]

I need to know how to grab text from and enter text into another
running programs textboxes. I dont know where to begin to look.

Grabbing data from a screen is done using the technique commonly known
as "screen scraping". Pasting it into another app's window is usually
done with SendKeys, but that is really ugly.
