Script to switch applications and type shortcuts

Toko
in Script Workspace and Script Triggers

Featured Replies

Hi,

I'd like to make a script which fires from a button in Filemaker:

1. switch to an application called "Protools"

2. Press key "*"

3. Press command-v

4. Press "return" button

How can i make this happen? And what kind of script language would i have to use?

Automator? Any help is appreciated!

Or AppleScript. E.g., (via Google):

FileMaker can run Applescripts -- which, if you end up needing it, can call Automator Workflows. But you might get the whole thing done with AppleScript.
