840040	2009-12-16 02:09:00	Hi there I have a Microsoft Natural Wireless Mouse 7000 (MS Intellipoint software) and I want to be able to program one of the multitude of buttons to forward onto the next audio track in media player while keeping media player minimised (some keyboards can do this – why not my mouse!) Mr Google harps on about APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_NEXTTRACK but I don’t understand where/how to use this command Help!	Sammy (4931)

Got to go out for the next 3 hours or so, so can't give you details - hopefully will point you in the right direction in the meantime.	MushHead (10626)

840045	2009-12-16 22:59:00	Thanks MushHead - when it comes to scripting please consider me a complete dummy.	Sammy (4931)
840046	2009-12-17 03:41:00	I'm a bit of a noob at this also. The consensus amongst the sites I've Googled on this seems to be that there's no way to do the equivalent in VBScript - possibly for security reasons. Also, the VBScript "SendKeys" function, which was my original idea, is apparently disabled in Vista. Possibly going the Perl route might work, or even C# - MS does a free compiler for that	MushHead (10626)
