I have created a very simple script to send a Ctrl+Alt+I which executes a find in a web based application (window 2). This piece is working fine but what I am finding is that if I have another IE session open (window 1), after it does the find on window 2 it does return focus back to the window 1 but the 'Alt' button has sent to this window.

Also, while the find is running the focus moves to window 2 until the find completes which takes a couple of seconds.

Ideally what I am trying to do is have the Ctrl+Alt+I sent to the other screen completely in the background.

Below is the text of script. Please note - this is the first time I have used AutoHotkey and I am not a developer by trade.

Thanks in advance for your help!!, Nolan

So what are the exact names of the 2 windows?
- Find in web based application (window 2) = "Internet Explorer_Server1" ?
- Another IE session (window 1) = ?
