    Windows Explorer Macro - Keyboard Sequence


    Hi,

    Does any know of any software that will allow me to record a set of keyboard presses that will then allow me to play back on a loop.

    I have done a bit of a Google search but haven't managed to make anything do it yet although i am probably missing a trick or 2

    Basically i need to edit >1000's of document keys on a system that only allows you to change one document at time so... by using a certain set of keyboard presses i am manually changing them but it would be nice to record these key presses and play it back and let the macro do the work.

    It would save me from getting repetitive strain injury :)

    The best software out there is AutoHotKey. But it takes quite some skill because it uses custom scripts.

    Give this a try too, but it has a freeware version and a paid version. http://www.vsisystems.com/macrowizard.htm

Hey all, I've been using this keyboard for a while now, and I've had no issues with it up until this point, but in the past week it's started to glitch. Now, whenever I click the touchpad or mouse-buttons a single time, it proceeds to click several times after that. It's also worth noting that...
This is killing me. When in word documents or typing in browsers, my laptop keyboard is perfectly fine, but when I'm in a game or certain other programs (like typing in Pandora, the internet radio) my keyboard (all the numbers, letters, and punctuation keys), when hit, will display numbers. No...
