Based on this info, what automation tools / libraries / scripting languages do you suggest? <ul> <li>I have a C++ / C# backround</li> <li>I have a Python future</li> <li>I use Windows, but would very much prefer a multi-platform solution for sharing purposes</li> </ul> How would I use those Tool(s), Language(s), or Library(s) to do the following? <ul> <li>Pass input / data between minimized, inactive windows without interfering with whatever the user might be doing in the foreground.</li> <li>Search for / Act on relevant controls and data inside an inactive window</li> <li>Interact with an applications GUI while its minimized (GUI controls' screen coordinates are unknown)</li> <li>Perform HTTP requests / automatic logins or form submitions.</li> <li>Perform logic</li> </ul> <h2>Here's an example problem I'm trying to solve:</h2> <blockquote> I have a program I call "Member Extractor" that extracts my site's member's contact information through the web; although the program can only be controlled through its GUI; and doesn't have the ability to export the data yet. (so each piece of information such as Email, Phone #, etc. must be automatically and systematically copied to the clip board 1-by-1, and pasted into a new "Microsoft Excel" document). Once the information is copied and saved in an organized way, I need to import that data to multiple new "Contact Profiles" generated by the "Universal Contact Manager" extension of the "Google Chrome Web Browser." The ordering of the data in the excel document isn't certain; so some kind of search for the cell location of the column header needs to be preformed along with some logic. </blockquote> <hr>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
