for me in PSPad  this is ok

;Pauses execution of the script until the requested window is active
WinWaitActive("[CLASS:TfPSPad]")

;~ ; Sleep for 3 seconds.
;~ Sleep(3000)
;~ Send("{ALT}{A}")

; Sleep for 3 seconds.
Sleep(3000)
Send("{ALT}")
Send("a")

To check validity you would need to read the text of the button and see if there is an "&" before the "A" ?

And Send("!a") would be better, no ?

as @Nine correct say Send("!a") would be better

  wrong copy to the right place

;Pauses execution of the script until the requested window is active
WinWaitActive("[CLASS:TfPSPad]")

;~ ; Sleep for 3 seconds.
;~ Sleep(3000)
;~ Send("{ALT}{A}")

; Sleep for 3 seconds.
Sleep(3000)
Send("!a")

;~ ; Sleep for 3 seconds.
;~ Sleep(3000)
;~ Send("{ALT}")
;~ Send("a")

and something I didn't say before is that the alt + a shortcuts in  PSPad is show/hide Character Table
