This Script Launches AOL 4.0 with a selected Sign On name & enters password.
I've added a Hotkey "Anyone know how to make a shortcut..when clicked.. would run this macro?"
(Yes - just right click the required macro and select 'Desktop Shortcut' - Ed).
Great Program!

//Run AOL Program - change directory if necessary
Run Program>C:\America Online 4.0\aol.exe
//Wait for program to open (WaitWindowOpen might be better)
Wait>10
//Go to sign on box
Press Tab
Press Tab
Press Tab
Press Tab
Press Tab
Press F4
//Move to last name "Guest"
Press End
//Name I want is one above so move up
Press Up
//Move to password box and enter password
Press Tab
Send Character/Text>"Your Password Here"
Press Enter
