Title:
Automating what was not designed to be automated
Hello.
I came to this wonderful freeware program shp2kml, which converts maps in ESRI/SHP format to KML and then displays them in Google Earth. Amazing stuff.
I'd like to integrate it into my application, but the sad thing is that the program is a standard exe with no command line options and no API or any other interface.
The fields to fill are rather common. You have to input 3 screens like a wizard and then voila, your map opens in Google Earth.
Maybe there is a way to send keystrokes from my VFP application to this exe?
Any other way to record a keyboard script to automate this application you can think of?
