    Can a program interact with multiple other programs?

    I was trying to automate some tasks using a macro recorder for the computer but if things vary at all it won't succeed. I am curious if I can program something to run events in other programs sequentially?

    It can be done, I just don't know how. There are programs that can hook into running processes and examine their controls and events.

    The testing suite, Silk Test, does exactly this. I just don't know how it does it.

      Perfect. I just wanted to make sure it WAS possible before I even try to start tinkering with it. Thanks Texmo.
