VB6 & Macros - Demonstrating a VB6 Program

Sam27 · Joined: 04 Oct 2007 Posts: 5

I have created a Visual Basic 6 program, one final feature that i wish to add
to the application is to create some sort of macro which records &
demonstrates my actions. Having recorded the macro i want to be able to
click a command button on my VB form and for the recorded demonstration to be
displayed. I need to show things like where the mouse moves to and the text
that is entered in specific fields. I know its possible to record/link
macros in applications like word/excel and powerpoint. But is it possible to
record macros in visual basic 6 alone? I am fairly new to VB6 so haven't
encountered macros in vb6 before. Many Thanks.

Here's an article for background reading. You are probably interestd in

The language of choice for implementation would be VC++ or VC, not VB6
