title: How to click buttons in an application using AutoIt or Windows UI Automation
body: <p><strong>Setup Environment:</strong></p>
  
  <p>I'm using vb.net to develop a Windows Form Application with .NET Framework 4.</p>
  
  <p><br></p>
  
  <p><strong>My goal:</strong></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Open <em>calculator.exe</em> using <code>Process.Start</code></li>
  <li>Using all vb.net code, be able to click <code>5 + 5 =</code></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I do not want to use SendKeys as a method.</p>
  
  <p><br></p>
  
  <p><strong>After researching, this link provided a good start:</strong></p>
  
  <p>This tutorial (written in C#) is very similar to what I'm trying to do by using vb.net:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/SamTomato/clicking-a-button-in-another-application/">How to click a button in another application</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p><br></p>
  
  <p>Could somebody provide a pointer on how to go about approaching this? I'd really appreciate it.</p>
