Hi Guys, Thank you all for help especially Tony who actually wrote a script for me, but Autoit is just the ticket. Autoit is actually a very interesting tool that I have never heard of before, it can do much more than copy&past, and it is definitely something I will be dedicating a bit of time in the future. Thanks to Bob for introducing it to me.
