 Hi I'm playing with the demo of QUICKEYS that I found in the PMUG
library, trying to decide how useful a MACRO program would be.

Anyways one of the things that would be really useful for a macro to
do for me would be to:
Open control panel
drag the scroll bar down so that I can see that startup device icon.
Click on the icon, than select my other hard drive as the startup
device.
RESTART

Now I've duped out that it would involve that click/drag option,
and the restart special, and that it would all have to be included
as part of a a sequence w/pauses. However, I've tried this and
it just doesn;t work. CAN quickeys perform an operation like this
or am I just trying in vain.?

I appreciate any help, step by step instrcutions would be nice.
If this really can work, then i might consider getting the real thing

thanks,
