It might very well be possible, depending upon how the program you want to automate has been written. First, make sure, absolutely sure, that's there's no "proper" automation option available - a command line version, COM automation, that kind of thing. These approaches are very much easier than GUI automation. If none of these options are available, <http://pywinauto.openqa.org/> is probably what you need. -- Cheers, Simon B. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
