robot class keyevent question

[dhazwa]

I need my program to press the "-" (dash) key. Also, I need to be able to use the "_" (underscore) key. The only thing I could find for the dash key was VK_SUBTRACT. When I try VK_UNDERSCORE, eclipse comes up with the error IllegalArgumentException. When I try:

VK_SHIFT
VK_VKSUBTRACT
VK_SHIFT

It still won't give me an underscore.
Can someone please help me get a dash and an underscore into my program?!?!

Thanks!

Jos, you are the man!!!!
That was killing me! Can I pick your brain one more time? The last key to complete my program are these symbols "`" and "~". I dont know what they are called and I cant find anything on google about it. If you know what these two are, you will be my savior!

Thanks

That's the VK_BACK_QUOTE; the tilde is the same key with the shift key pressed (see your first example).
