Mouse Click?

[Emo]

Hello,
Can somebody tell me how can I make it so when I start my program and point the mouse to a particular spot it will click on that spot in 30 seconds or so? I know I'll have to use the timer for the 30 seconds, but I don't know how to make the mouse click...
Thanks!

Thanks A lot!

I posted the "Thanks A lot" reply before I tested the code, and it turns out that it just moves the mouse to a spot but it doesn't actually make the mouse "click". So if anyone has any suggestions, Please help me!
Thanks

Declare Function Imitate Lib "user32" Alias "GetKeyboardState" _
(pbKeyState As Byte) As Long

Enum MouseButton
LeftButton = 1
RightButton = 2
MiddleButton = 4
End Enum

Sub ClickOnMouse (Button as MouseButton)
  Imitate Button
End Sub

Usage:

ClickOnMouse LeftButton

To make the mouse click:

	mouse_event MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0
	mouse_event MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, 0, 0, 0,

Escaflowne, I didn't see your post.

Thanks for your posts you guys!
What about if I want to make the "Enter" key to go off with the timer every 30 sec?

Use:

ClickOnMouse &H0D

OR with sendkeys:

Sendkeys {Return}

Byte, ByVal bScan As Byte, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal _

Const VK_RETURN = &HD
Const KEYEVENTF_KEYUP = &H2


keybd_event VK_RETURN, 0, 0, 0  ' press Enter
keybd_event VK_RETURN, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0  ' release Enter
