    Set focus to another program


    I would like to create a button that sets the focus off of access and then onto another (Non-Microsoft) application and then send some keys, I have absolutely no idea on how to do this but I have seen some Excel sheets that do something similar but they are locked up with a password and I can't get into the code. Does anyone have a link or feel like telling me how to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
