SetWindowText of Edit Box in another program's window

I'm making a basic program to input text into another program's Edit Box controls.  I am baffled why this simple thing is failing.  I have absolutely no problem getting the window handle and control ID for these controls but for some reason neither SetWindowText nor SetDlgItemText will work as far as entering text into the Edit Box controls of another program.  Thanks in advance.
