Hello Yes I know this is a VBA forum and I'm using LT 2005, but I thought someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
What I'm trying to do is this I'm trying to use DDE to change to another page in my drawing, because Autodesk in their wisdom removed plotting multiple pages in LT2005 I'm trying to write a program which will do the following

A) Change to the next tab in a multiple tab document no matter what the tab is called
B) Plot it out automatically.

I know how to use DDE as I wrote a little steel shape drawing program for LT2000 (borrowing work from S. Yoder), but every time I try to use the sendkeys command to send Control+Pagedown, it doesn't do anything at all in LT 2005
