You Could Either Create A Standalone EXE Or Even Have Just The Link To The Script File In The Quick Launch.

C:\Program Files\MJT Net Ltd\Macro Scheduler\msched.exe C:\Scripts\My Script.scp
SetFocus>notepad*
Send Character/Text>This Would Be The Text That Would Be Sent To Notepad.

GetClipBoard

May I suggest that you keep separate questions under their own subject. Makes it easier to locate topics of interest.
