Greetings all.

I've got a couple of programs which do not use Windows cut and paste functions. I can export data from one of the programs into Excel, however the other program doesn't have any import capability.

Is anyone aware of a macro utility that I can use that I can set up to read the data in a cell, then 'type' it into the other program?

It doesn't need to be fully automated, but I don't want to have to retype several hundred entries.

Thanks, and Happy Friday!
Brian

A great program I've been using for years.

There is a trial version and if you email me I will send you an older, cleaner, better version that is simpler to use and is free forever except for a nag screen on start up.

They want something like $100 for it now.

Anyways, in addition to copy/paste, you could script out the entire thing in a loop and be done in no time.

Try Workspace Macro Pro or Automation Anywhere if you need more advanced tool.
