You could try using SendKeys.

You could try using SendKeys.

Clipboard.Clear
Clipboard.SetText "sp"
SendKeys "^V"
SendKeys "{Enter}"

Why do you need to get it to paste? Can't you just use SendKeys to send the password?

I'm pretty much out of ideas.

If you had access to the source, you could modify the application to accept login details from the command line, or communicate them some other way such as DDE.

Im assuming your using VB6, I dont know if VB5 has API.

Look for PatorJK API Spy.
API Calls can do many things. What your trying to do is fill a TextBox on another window.

Use an API Spy to set another windows TextBox with your own Text.

Hope this helps!
