You can send commands to an application to search for 'blabla' and then, after the application has found the word, send a mouse click.

yes, but how do i say it to the application? and how macro express knows where to click?

 

and if the word not exsist in the window i dont want macro express to click any word.

Macro Express will not mouse move directly to text. If you are wanting to cilck on some specific text...then I would think that the text box that the text is contained in may have a control to it that you can capture... and you can move the mouse to that control. If the text is a specific color (different than other text), you can use the get pixel in a loop to find and click. Otherwise, if the text always appears in the same place, you can get the position and always have the mouse to move there.

I actually do something like that in a macro to post the same information to many different forums, blogs, etc. Each system has different ways, and sometimes the information changes around or I can't get an exact url and must automate some web-navigation. Because the text I am looking for is also an "a href", I can search for the text, escape out of the "find" field, and then automate an [enter] to emulate a click.
