I implemented your example, and it works... but only if I drag
the window of the application after it sends the message.  
Otherwise, the target dialog stays up.  (???)

Any idea what would cause that?  Is it possible that Microsoft
has the dialog watching for a mouse click, and only a real
mouse click will work?  ...but "Click Yes" works, so there has
to be a way.
