Small "window closing program" needed

P

Peter Jetson

I have a program that has worked just fine for years under W2K, but now
that I'm running it under XP, a programming error has been exposed.
Until it's fixed, I need a way to "get around it".

Basically, the program pops up a window complaining about an error when
it starts up, and I have to click on the OK button before the program
will continue. There is no actual error, and the program runs just fine
after the OK button is clicked.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a little background program that
would be able to detect that this window is open, and click the OK
button automatically?

Thanks, Peter

Push The Freakin' Button will do exactly that.

At the time of release it was freeware, but the same couldn't strictly
be said for PC Magazines AutoIt. Discretion advised. ;o)
