- I use a QuicKeys macro to do the exact thing that you want: open
- ControlPanels, interact with buttons in a dialog (that changes depending
- on prior conditions), etc, etc.
-
- Macros can be activated based on a specified time of day or after
- a fixed delay (similar to cron, but not quite as definable). The latest
- version of QuicKeys has basic looping and control structures (based on
- open/available windows and buttons).
-
- QuicKeys is commercial software published by CE Software and widely available
- from dealers and mail-order. (Be aware there is a learning curve to take full
- advantage of advanced features, but not too bad.)
