Can QBasic do the typing for me??

[Moneo]

I have software at home that I have to run over and over. I have to hit these keys on the keyboard repeatedly: Enter - Enter - Enter - D - st6.min - Enter - etc etc.

I'm wondering if there is a QBasic command that I can use to have QBasic hit those keyboard keys for me (so to speak). If there is a command for that can someone post it so I can then search Google on how to use that command?

Hi Licentia,
In 1985 there was a utility program called SUPERKEY by Borland which did exactly what you want. You probably can still find a copy around. You'll also need the manual.

Another way is to "stuff the buffer" or as Nathan says "fill the keyboard buffer". You don't need to do a TSR for this, but you do need the StuffBuf function for QB or QuickBASIC which come with Ethan Winer's QuickPak Professional Library which used to cost about $159. For me it was well worth it.

Anyway, the solutions exist --- they just might not be free.

You might give DKEY a try...should do exactly what you want. And it's free.

It wouldn't hurt to learn C, though... about 50 languages are 99% it.
