hi there, i have been trying to type commands into cygwin using vb, the code is:

VB

Shell("C:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat")
SendKeys.Send("tracert -h " & _h & " " & domain.Text & " > temp" & i + 1 & ".txt")

but the problem is that i always need to press "enter" so that cygwin runs "processes" the trace route command,so am asking for the code which perform "enter" in vb so that the command will be executed through the code.
