Question How to pass variables to 3rd party unix menu?

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to pass data to a unix driven 3rd party menu. Changing the code is out of the question. I have a menu with various options and I would like a ksh to execute the menu and input the required fields. For example.

Main menu
1. Company Name
2. blah
3. blah
4. commit
5. exit
> 1 <enter>
(option 1 selected)
Enter Company name: BlahBlahBlah <enter>
(Back to main menu)
>4 <enter>
(commited change and back to main menu)
>5 <enter>
(exited program/menu)

Do I need to pass variables to the menu's option and if so how?

greatly appreciated,
