Stop Hibernation Urgent

[Trev B]

Hi Thanks in advance.

I have problem that a laptop keep going to sleep (Or Hibernation) approx
every 20 mins.

I have no access to security so can't change the settings.

Need someway to keep laptop awake.

Lap top is looking at inbox of outlook for new email using access vba code
(Problem is outlook freezes when it is in sleep mode so stops processing)

At present we have to remember to press, alternative, the shift and ctrl
keys manual.

Have tried to use kendkeys but does not work.

Please please help asap. Any idea would be good. A simple fix would be
fantastic

Thanks

Trev B

Any idea would be good.

You could always try posting to a Windows newsgroup.

You're going to love the sideways thinking on this one. I think I
read this on the Daily WTF blog.

Apparently there is a battery operated doll rocking chair you can
purchase in toy stores. Put an optical mouse in the rocking chair
and let it run. The movement of the rocking keeps the mouse moving
slightly.

It does this even with all the options to do that turned off?

What options turned off? I don't understand your question.

But what if he does not have a mouse?

They're cheap and he should have a spare USB port.
