VBScript for Alt-Tab after fixed duration?

Clare_Culchie

Folks,

Could anyone tell me how i can create a simple VBScript that will cycle through five or six open and maximised windows in XP (various apps such as IE8, VLC, Visio, etc.,) and exit when I press the Esc key?

At the moment, I'm using the following, but I can't quit it without logging out...
"Option Explicit
Dim objShell
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Do
objShell.SendKeys "%+{TAB}"
Wscript.Sleep 9000
Loop"

Also, the time (which I think is "9000" does not bear any resemblance to seconds or minutes. Is there any other means of determining the duration between the Alt-Tabs?

Thanks a million in advance,

Brian
P.S. the purpose of this is to cycle between KPI screens, network map and other metrices at our helpdesk office.

I did a quick google and found this app

one person has suggested that using with the following code will do exactly what you need it to do..

Loop {
Send {Alt down}{Tab down}{Alt up}{Tab up}
Sleep 60000 ; wait 60 seconds
}
