Well, like I've mentioned before, I don't do VB, but from asking around it
looks like a compiled program should be able to get at the nonscriptable
interface.

The tlb for msrdp.ocx from XPSP2 has SendKeys available from the interface.
If you can do a QueryInterface call in VB, do a QI for
IMsRdpClientNonScriptable. That interface exposes SendKeys.

If you need more details tell me; I don't use the external interfaces much
so I'm not sure if that was enough info.
