passing data to another application via PC keyboard buffer

Hi,
 
I'm writing a background processing application now using Labview 7 and under Window XP.
 
Seeking some help on how to put a string of characters into the PC keyboard buffer, so I can pass on my string of (processed) data to another 3rd-party-application via keyboard buffer (ie. simulate the data entry to the 3rd-party-application)  in the same desktop PC.
 
I have tested such simulation on the olden days DOS 6 based C programming by putting few characters & changing the control information directly into the physical system memory, the operating system round-robin-keyboard-buffer..... it works on the DOS environment.... but it failed to work on the Window XP and using my Labview.
 
Thanks.

Hi, SKWONG,
    You have found your way to the LabWindows message boards.  Since your question is for LabView, you will get more help if you post on those boards.
