Anyone know of a mouse macro recorder, preferably one that is free and that you can specify the ammount of repeats for each macro?

It should have a free trial. If it does what you want it's well worth the $30.

What are you trying to achieve. Batchman has a free trial, and if you can get it all down to keystrokes, works fine. It has a mouse recorder, but, like they say, if you can get it down to keystrokes it is much more reliable. The problem with mouse recording is it works on absolute co-ordinates, while windows can be anywhere on a screen. I think it helps to have the application you are working on set to full screen.

Thanks, I will give those two a try. a_unique_person, I cannot do the task with keystrokes because it is a mouse only application, tab and enter do not work nor do any buttons have associated keys.

I'm too tied to dig it up, but there are a few freeware ones on cnet.com I used one to cheat on an online game a long time ago.

If one of you could spare a few minutes, perhaps you could explain what a mouse macro recorder is.
Thank you.

Thank you.
It is a program that records your mouse movements and clicks and then with some hotkey you can have your movements and clicks played back and do tasks for you instead of physically having to move the mouse and click on things yourself.

I once use one, and it is great for repetitive work, it save a lot of time. :D
