Thanks for everyones input on this. I used Albert's api and I have enough of an application up and running already to show the bosses it can be done.

Ok, not sure if this is an RPG question or not so chill on the flames.

I need to be able to possibly pick data up from a file, and then run it
through some screens programmatically and then perhaps pull some stuff off
and process it.
Essentially simulate a user doing data entry to process a customer order but
through a macro.

Can anyone tell me how this might be accomplished? I have seen it done but
never been asked to do it. Are there packages for this or a few API's?

Thanks, Jon
