import time
app=Application.Start("Application.exe")

Answer 1

1. Be sure you are using exactly needed window. top_window_() may return quite another window.

To check, run:

app.top_window_().DrawOutline() #Highlight the window

2.The window can be not active, set it focus before the typing:

window = app.top_window_()
window.SetFocus()
window.TypeKeys("{TAB 2}")

3.More, you may need to click on the window.

window.Click()
window.TypeKeys("{TAB 2}")
