    Hello, Does anybody know of a way to automate both opening applications and various application calls (possibly .dll files) in Windows 2000 or XP? For example, I am developing a graphics application in C++. There are various repetetive tasks needed in order to prepare many of the application assets. Also, I wanted to use this program for testing purposes or to automate repetitive tasks for various applications I am using in Windows. Possibly record an action script and then I would be able to play the script at any time to perform the recorded task. This could also be applications that I am developing myself. Are there any libraries that exist that facilitate this in Windows? Are there any programs already in existence that are able to perform this task? Thank You.
