Would be nice if you used word wrap....

Have a look at the WM_SETFOCUS message.
It is sent to a window after it has gained the keyboard focus, and
supposedly gives the handle of the window that is loosing focus.
Perhaps your virtual keyboard could send the virtual keystrokes to
that window, and then re-focus it.
