Yes I do it for, running many system 
tests at once.  A bit  experimental but I have more than 100 
system test (takes about 40 minutes with 550 Mhz machine ), and I run them every 
night. I just cut, a small part of my Visual Basic automation program, 
to give you an idea. Following codes runs MS and sets the loading options number 
of days to 301. As you see this done mainly mimicing key strokes.

| Folks,| | I'd like to be able to set up a desktop 
'macro/script/batch language'| that opens MetaStock (7.2), and atomically 
runs a set of sequential| explorations.| | Do any of you now do that 
successfully?  If so, how?| | Thanks,| Nicholas| |
