If you are looking for a solution that does not rely on third-party programs, that will depend on how the program reportsupload.exe handles the request for pressing ENTER. If it reads the standard input stream, you might be able to manage it by changing the line to echo. | reportsupload.exe -e "http://mysite/ReportServer"; if it's handled by scanning the keyboard for the keypress, this will not work.

There may be third-party programs that can be configured to detect when the computer or a program is in a given state and trigger an action based on that state, but I'm not aware of any that don't require user intervention (e.g., pressing a key to execute a macro).
