I created a dialog test in dlls/shell32/tests/brsfolder.c. The dialog
under test has a callback function which is called when it finishes
initialization. I used that callback to create a timer that selects
things via PostMessage and enters text via keybd_event. Feel free to
ask about it.

Is it your own dialog you are testing or a built-in?
