mouse moving on desktop...

Hello!

May anybody tell me if it is possible to move the mouse on the desktop with a code?! If yes, how to do so?

You can use SendInput or mouse_event. I can't remember why, but I'm pretty sure I read that mouse_event ( much like keybd_event ) is not recommended any more. But hey, try both and see how they go.

Try this, it shouldn't be hard to convert it to BMax code, I would do it, but I'm a little busy right now.

Mouse userlib

I tried to update the SetCurorPos and mouse_event to the user32.dll in /pub.mod/win32.mod and recompiled the modules. But I still get the msg, that he don't know this two functions. öÔ

May somebody show me how it will work please?
