I have problem with folowing code on Windows 95, although it works on
Windows NT !?!

This code is give you an idea of what I'm plnning to do:

  'Execute MSDE Uninstall app
  Cmd = GetWinDir & "\IsUninst.exe -m" & GetWinDir &
"\sql70.mif -f""C:\MSSQL7\uninst.isu"" -C""C:\MSSQL7\sqlsun.dll"""

  Shell Cmd, vbMinimizedNoFocus

 'Here I'm waiting for the uninstall program to show
  While FindWindow(vbNullString, "Confirm File Deletion") = 0
    Sleep 100
    DoEvents
  Wend

 'Ok I found the messagebox , the messagebox contains a Yes-button which is
default and has a hotkey Alt-Y, now I want to send both Alt-Y and the
Enter-key
 just to be sure I hit the Yes-button!

  lHandle = FindWindow(vbNullString, "Confirm File Deletion")   'I fetch the
handle of the window
  SendMessage lHandle, WM_SETFOCUS, 0&, 0&   ' I let the form have the focus
  SendKeys "%Y" , True       'Send Alt-Y to press the Yes-button
  SendKeys "{ENTER}" , True    'Just to be sure, I slam the enter key at the
form

  I pass here but the form is still there, like I said it works on Windows
NT , I don't know what doesn't work, the SendMessage with the setfocus
clause, or the   SendKeys

  While FindWindow(vbNullString, "Remove Programs From Your Computer") = 0
'This loop 'hangs' because the first form is still visible
     Sleep 1000
     DoEvents
  Wend

Anyone can help me out ?

Thanks in advance,

Pete
