Pressing buttons virtually is one way of accomplishing the task. Other ways I can think of, from easiest to hardest.

• Use networktables to send a value to the LabVIEW code. Remember, your code can do more than one thing.
• Or just use sockets for communications. Should be easy to find an example somewhere on Chief Delphi.
• If you're using python, you could try just sending raw driver station data instead using the driver station protocol. RobotPy has some code that may work for doing this.
• You could simulate joystick buttons, this looks promising. I'd bet it's harder than the other alternatives.
