Default Recording Mouse Actions in VBA

There is software that records screen actions into a Divx file or Mpeg. I
know Techsmith has a demo version that may be good for 20 days or so. It
works very well at creating training videos. www.techsmith.com (I think)

Hi

Not sure if this is possible at all, but is it possible to somehow
record the movements of the mouse pointer in vba?

Basically ive been asked to do a basic excel training document and it
would be handy if i could somehow use VBA to record each step of the
training so when the user runs the training macro it shows them each
step (then id add in a load of interactive msg boxes etc to spice
things up)
I.e. i might want to show someone how to go to data, then sort and id
want to see the mouse do the very same thing.

Thanks!

Tim
