what i need is a script that does the following:

Click at 188:439
type string
click 188:495
type string
click 188:534
Sleep 2000
click 638:603
Type "Control+v"
click 624:625
Sleep 2000
click 452:96
Sleep 2000

and repeat.

i tried it using macros with a program called "SCAR" aswell. it can be done with that but there was just a few minor things that stopped me. but i have no idea how to move the cursor with vbscript so if anyone could gimme a hand thanks.

You cannot move the cursor with VBScript. I know that you can do it with WinBatch and you may be able to do it with AutoIt I just can't remember.

And once again the utterly brilliant NIRCMD comes to the rescue.

I may just be missing it, but I don't see a command in NirCmd to click the cursor. I see the move, but how would you click on a specific location?

is it possible to just tab between the fields you are trying to enter data into?
if so just use sendkeys to tab to where you need the data and then enter it.

Yeah, AutoIt is probably a better solution actually.
