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
