Hi,

First of all may I take this opportunity to wish you a happy and prosperous new year!

Macro Scheduler 8.0 Released
============================

We are very pleased to announce the availability of Macro Scheduler 8.0. New Features At a glance:

* Scheduler Service. Macros can be scheduled when Macro Scheduler is not running and when Windows is logged out.

* AutoLogon Technology. AutoLogon can be enabled in Macro Properties so that if the macro is scheduled when the workstation is locked or logged out AutoLogon will unlock or log in to Windows before the script is executed and will then lock or log out once the script has finished running.

* Unicode Support - Send double byte characters to other applications.

* Event Triggers

* Script functions to get items from list boxes and tree views

* Improved Macro Recorder window sensing

* New debugger functions

* Other improvements and optimisations

Image Recognition Library
=========================

The Macro Scheduler Image Library provides functions for comparing images and locating the position of one image in another. Finding a button on the screen, for example.

These functions are extremely useful when automating applications which don't expose standard Windows objects, or in situations when it is impossible to access the GUI objects directly, such as:

- Controlling Java applets
- Automating Flash applets
- Automating Terminal Server/Citrix/Virtual PC sessions remotely
- Automating VNC, Remote Admin, PC Anywhere, Radmin sessions etc
- Telnet sessions

The image library allows recognition of objects graphically and is therefore independent of the technology used to display objects on the screen.

The Image Recognition Library is a free download for users of Macro Scheduler.

Macro Scheduler has been used successfully for automated software and load testing for a number of years. People often ask how best to go about this. Well, we now have some articles available which describe how you can use Macro Scheduler for automated software testing and automated load testing. You can find them at: http://www.mjtnet.com/automated_testing.htm
