Hello I need some help

I am using a Batch file to write a VBS

The VBS uses sendkeys on the Batch file

Obviously focus can be taken away from the Batch file which could cause problems

So I am asking for one of two solutions

A way to bring the Batch file into focus or only send keystrokes to that specific Batch file

Thanks in advance

Errr... huh? You may need to post some code because it sounds like you're doing something rather strange.

I don't have anything down in code yet so I'll try to make it easier to understand

User runs Batch file
-Creates a new VBS file
-Runs that VBS file

All this I can do but then...

VBS file runs
-Finds the Batch file that made it
-Simulates keyboard input in that file (If it's still running)

I hope that makes it clearer

No. Generally, the Batch file will be paused while the VBS file is running, so I don't see how you're doing keyboard input to the Batch file. It also sounds VERY odd to be using two different scripting systems like this.
