Ed,
Hi! I used a key-stroke macro automation program when I was gearing up for
my R&S CCIE. It was a pain in the butt to develop the initial script, but
after it was completed and working, it made it really easy to go from one
lab scenario to the next. Try going to ZD.NET and searching for macro
automation programs. (I dont know what I did with the one I was using, or
I'd send it to you) Most of the programs will work in "record mode" and
will record a sequence of key-strokes/mouse movements. After you get the
timing down right (which might take a couple whacks), you'll probably have
to make some small adjustments to your macro scripts and you'll be good to
go. Let me know the name of the program you wind up using so I can
recommend it to other people as well.
thanks,
-Brad Ellis
