Here's why: I have about files that need to be edited, and they all need the same thing done to them. I can open up Paint Shop Pro, and open each file and do this... Ctrl + R Enter Shift + Ctrl + 0 Alt + C , G Shift + B Enter Shift + S Enter F12 Enter And I get the result I want. So, I can either do these manually, or set up some sort of "macro key" that will automatically perform the sequence that I set up. (And that I can edit as needed.) So what I need is an application that when I press a certain button (like F7 or something), it will follow whatever keyboard sequence I've set up (such as the one above) for each file that I open. It's like simulating a "macro" that allows you to perform multiple functions with a single keystroke. I hope that makes sense. If it doesn't, please don't bid! Also - when I set up the sequence to "program", it needs to support a one-second [pause] function, because some of the operations above (Shift + Ctrl + 0, for example) take a couple of seconds to perform. So part of the sequence might be... Ctrl + R Shift + Ctrl + 0 [pause] [pause] Alt + C By the way, I'm sure you realize that the plus sign (+) indicates that the two keys would be pressed simultaneously. Any other questions, please let me know. I'm kind of in a hurry on this one, so the quicker you can do this, the more attractive your bid will be. Thanks!
