[AccessD] Snedkeys Breaks in Vista

Test it Rocky.  As far as I know it works in Vista if you aren't still
using the A97 libraries, because they were based on VB5.

Dear List:

Apparently Sendkeys does not work in Vista.  I know, I know, I shouldn't
be using SendKeys.  But this app was developed in A97 when it wasn't
such a disreputable technique.  But now, on a Vista box, SendKeys
generates the unhelpful error "Permission denied".

Is there a simple workaround for this?  Simpler than redesigning around
the use of sendkeys which admittedly only occurs in about a dozen places
in my app.
