Hi William

To control the mouse using code try the below. You will need to adjust the
cursor positions to suit your requirement. (in the below example it is
150,200) . Try and feedback.


--Insert a module and copy the below declarations.
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Declare Function SetCursorPos Lib "user32" _
(ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long) As Long
Public Declare Sub mouse_event Lib "user32" _
(ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dx As Long, ByVal dy As Long, _
ByVal cButtons As Long, ByVal dwExtraInfo As Long)
Public Declare Function GetMessageExtraInfo Lib "user32" () As Long
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--Copy the below code to the macro

Private Sub Macro()
'your other code

SetCursorPos 150, 200
mouse_event &H2, 0, 0, 0, GetMessageExtraInfo()
mouse_event &H4, 0, 0, 0, GetMessageExtraInfo()
End Sub

In the mean while I assume you already know about AppActivate Function which
activates an application that is already running.
