Button Shortcut Docklet

[yusufmothman]

In short words,

I need a docklet that does a button shortcut,

e.g. Click on the docklet and it activates "F8" (for instance).

I just need one so that with that press of the button it launches my dashboard (:

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks.

And oh yeah, I was also hoping that it can also do keystrokes like Alt-Tab or something.

Open notepad and paste the following:

set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WshShell.SendKeys "{F6}"

Where you see "F6" written change it to e.g. F1. Then save it as a .vbs file and name it e.g. "F1.vbs" which in this case will bring up windows help.

About the keystrokes part, I don't know if it's possible. Maybe someone more experienced than me knows.

Hope this helps,

Dodgers.

EDIT: Solution to Alt+Tab...

Copy this and save as a .vbs file:

set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WshShell.SendKeys ("%{TAB}")

you can do copy, paste any and all that you can do with keys you can do with vb script using sendkeys. what in particular were you looking for by "keystrokes"
