I also use the RSA SecurID client and the version I use has the Copy
command in the menu structure so I can copy the code to the clipboard
with ALT+C. You may want to consider, rather than having it click and
place the focus there, just copy the sequence of numbers to the
clipboard so you can paste it into your VPN client.
