Meanwhile after wasting a couple of hours trying to make it work with
AutoHotKey, I just recorded an Emacs macro, named and dumped it and tied
it to a keychord. Following seems to be working well for me:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; work around for V not refreshing on Windows
;; use when in agenda after F12-SPC
(global-set-key (kbd "C-<f7>")
                (fset 'my-next-project
                      (lambda (&optional arg) "Keyboard macro."
                        (interactive "p")
                        (kmacro-exec-ring-item (quote ("Vg\274" 0 "%d")) arg))))
#+end_src

Cheers
