"the spy"

See this collection of win32 tutorials/examples for a link to the spy

Win32 programming is very laborious and requires a great deal of win32 knowledge (in addition to a win32 machine:), error checking becomes very important (sending a click doesn't guarantee you actually clicked your target, or the new window/dialog has shown yet ... sometimes you have to wait for it)

I think, I will have to perform that function through AutoIT and converting that code to exe and then calling it in my perl script.....

Sounds like a plan, the AutoIt folks seem to like win32 a lot :) and work with it a lot:) and make working with win32 a lot easier :)

FWIW, if you look at http://search.cpan.org/~shimi/Win32-Watir-0.06-withoutworldwriteables/MANIFEST or Win32::IEAutomation you can see they're using AutoIt COM interface from perl :)

lib/Win32/Watir/AutoItX.chm lib/Win32/Watir/AutoItX3.dll lib/Win32/Watir/AutoItX3_x64.dll

Good luck:)
