Macro program that can record keystrokes or mouseclicks ?
Is there such a tool or utility for Vista x86 or x64?

I need something that could capture a sequence of clicks.. so i could assign
a "hot key" sequence for that event..

This is for the nvidia control panel which no longer supports hot keys..
hence i could then switch profiles with a few keypresses..

Any thoughts?

Thanks

There are ways to navigate without the mouse. For example, the tab key moves
the focus across the various inputs, spacebar selects, and of course enter.
--go.vbs--
set shell=createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.sendkeys "{Tab 3} {ENTER}"
--end file--
SendKeys Method:

This is true.. but I think it would be far too complex a task to navigate to
the nvidia console.. select a particular file etc.. a recorder type setup
would work better.. ultimately i hope to find a way to do this with an
infared repeater and eliminate the mouse/keyboard alltogether (video viewing
in other room).. using my harmony remote, i could set the macro for
switching back and forth...

If only nvidia would have left the hot key ability in there.. i'd be set..

There are general purpose macro recorders available. Check out
'Workspace Macro - Macro Recorder - Keyboard Macro, Mouse Macro.
Windows Macro, Macro Software, Keystroke Macro, Macro Program, Macro
maker' (http://www.tethyssolutions.com/product.htm)

I use the Pro version because it allows me to edit the macro.
