BKOCH1,
I am not entirely clear on your application. One way of simulating a keypress would be to use one of the methods in a windows DLL. The example at the location below simulates key presses using LabVIEW. This LabVIEW code module can be called from within TestStand. I'm not sure whether the enumerated list in the LabVIEW vi actually has an input for the arrow key, but if it doesn't, it might be possible to find out what the DLL does exactly so that something slightly modified can be accomplished.

If this is not applicable to your situation, then perhaps there is a similar library available in Solaris that allows you access to the key presses. In which case, you can write an application in any other language (C, C++, etc) to access that library to simulate a keypress and call that code module from within TestStand.
