Automating Input ???

[Richard Wilkinson]

We often access websites for testing that require us to enter a lot of
similar information with each inquiry. Is there a way for us to write a
macro or script that will allow us to automatically fill-in a majority of
these fields automatically each time? This would be a great time-saver and
we would appreciate anyones help in this regard.

Thanks,

Richard

Have you tried using IE's built-in Autocomplete feature?

If that is unsuitable, you could use a third-party app such as:

Or something that is even more flexible and customizable:

The Google Toolbar has an Autofill feature too, can even be password
protected.

Thank you for the reply, Jon. I thought that Windows XP had a Visual Basic
macro ability or a scripting ability that would allow us to accomplish what
we need without going to a third party? Am I mistaken? In response to your
reply, Yes, we have been using the autocomplete feature. It is a relatively
acceptable alternative, but not near as efficient as a good macro that would
quickly fill in all the fields at once.
