Can you tell me how 2 do this?

hmm im not sure to what extent java can utilize the windows api so I'm not exactly sure how to tackle this one in java. In C/C++ however, using the windows api you can grab the windows HWND, then using that get the HWND of the texfield. After that use SetDlgItemText to set the text of the textfield. Finally emulate a "enter" keystroke using keeyboard event function.
