Help - Passing a value to a container application like IE

[Barca]

I have a bunch of users all using Internet Explorer that want a button on
their form such that when clicked bring up the IE Find dialog box, so that
they can find a string within their several 1000 row table.

They were used to a spreadsheet that has a button with the following code:

SendKeys "^f"

Is there a method that 'raises' a key press to the containing application
in a similar manner?
Something like:
<param name="onClick" value="^F">

Sounds like a Javascript question. You might want to ask in that discussion
group.
