Automate Task Help / is it possible?

I was wondering if this exists?

I know in VBA you can record Macros... thats what i want, but in a whole windows solution.

-

I need to get data from a spreadsheet into some software, but has to be manually entered.

There is one screen, and then just an add next button.

So i was thinking, is there software that you can set up some type of mouse emulation/recorder, and simply copy from the cell, and then paste into the field? and then after 5 or so inputs are made, just click the add next button and loop all over again, and again?

-

I have over 1k records, so will take an age to do by hand.

Thanks for any advice...

If you are using windows the solution is already present - see the following

Windows Script Host - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are other solutions - try googling "Windows Scripting"
