I'm trying to figure out how to invoke a software action from the program
I'm developing. Basically I have to open another software, do some stuff
like File-Open, Modify and File-Save, and then close the application. All
this is to be done automatically by the software I'm developing. Right now
the only thing I was able to find is to use a mouse click automation
utility, but I doesn't seem to be a reliable method.
I hope I made myself clear.
Thanks anyway.
Bye

Luca
