Guest F. Lawrence Kulchar Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 I, of course, sign in to a huge variety of websites on an everyday basis. I have been fortunate enough to have utilized the SAME screenname for each and every one of them. IS IT POSSIBLE TO, SOMEHOW, CREATE A "LOCK", i.e. a copied screenname, and then, sign in USING, for example, "CTRL V" -- thereby pasting the screenname onto the webpage?????????? This SCREENNAME would of course exist throughout the day...and NOT vary from day to day!!!!! Thank you, FLKulchar

Open notepad.exe 2. Enter these lines: Set ws=CreateObject("WScript.Shell") ws.sendkeys("%{Tab}") wscript.sleep(500) ws.sendkeys("FLKulchar{Enter}") 3. Save the file as "c:\Windows\MyName.vbs" 4. Create a shortcut on the desktop that invokes this command: cscript //nologo c:\Windows\MyName.vbs. 5. Specify a "Shortcut Key" of Alt+Shift+Z (for example). Now open another notepad session and press Alt+Shift+Z to test the shortcut.

If it is lost on your machine then you must re-install it. Wordpad is not suitable for this purpose. Which part of the shortcut creation is it that you do not understand? How to specify the target? It's one of the text boxes you see when you create the shortcut! How to specify the "Shortcut Key"? It is also one of the boxes you see.

Guest Pegasus \(MVP\) Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 Re: Controlled "SIGN IN" with constant SCREENNAME The file "c:\Windows\MyName.vbs" is a VB Script file. It has the ability to generate key strokes, as if you typed them yourself. The desktop shortcut you created will invoke the VB Script file, same as your IE desktop shortcut will invoke Internet Explorer. The shortcut key you use in the shortcut will invoke that shortcut directly rather than you having to double-click it with your mouse.

Guest Francis L. Kulchar Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Re: Controlled "SIGN IN" with constant SCREENNAME I list below emails we exchanged last November re: VBS files..and a shortcut on the desktop allowing me to "enter' my screenname every time I keyed in the shortcut> I "LOST" my harddrive, and had to recreate it to th best of my abilities...I recreated the VBS file entitled My Name. The UNFORTUNATE part is that when I hit my keystroke shortcut, 'CTRL' + 'Alt' + 'N', I get the program to work only 1 ou of 3 times...for reasons, I do not understand. ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE? FLKulchar FLKulchar The file "c:\Windows\MyName.vbs" is a VB Script file. It has the ability to generate key strokes, as if you typed them yourself. The desktop shortcut you created will invoke the VB Script file, same as your IE desktop shortcut will invoke Internet Explorer. The shortcut key you use in the shortcut will invoke that shortcut directly rather than you having to double-click it with your mouse.
