Holding down keys

[oulyt]

Im trying to make a program that hold down 3 keys for 30 seconds. lets say the 'z', 'x', and 'c'. then after 30 seconds it lets go pauses for 5 then holds them again for 30. and it would be doing this to a different window, lets say notepad.

I was thinking keybd_event but that dosnt seem like it holds the keys down. sendmessage might work with wm_keydown but i have no idea how to do that. i was reading it but didnt get most of it >.<
