You have to make multiple calls to keybd_event(), one for each key, and one
for each individual KeyDown and KeyUp action as well.  For example:

    keybd_event(VK_CONTROL, 0, 0, 0);
    keybd_event('C', 0, 0, 0);
    keybd_event('C', 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
    keybd_event(VK_CONTROL, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

Why not just send WM_COPY and WM_PASTE messages to the foreground window
instead?
