I want to open another program in labview and when opened send keystrokes and key combinations to it.

Is that possible ?

Take a look athe example vi 'Basic Input Demo.vi' shipped with LabVIEW.

Go to Find Examples>>Building User Interfaces>>Acquiring User Input>>Key board and mouse>>'Basic Input Demo.vi

Hope this is what you are looking for

That example shows how to capture keystrokes in LabVIEW. I believe the poster is asking for the other direction - to be able to send keystrokes to another programs from within LabVIEW. There are a couple of ways to do this, depending on your operating system, which you did not provide. If you're on a WIndows machine you can use the Windows API function SendInput. The other is to use an automation program like AutoIt, which allows you to automate just about anything in Windows.
