As Windows users pay out more money each year to buy utilities, there can be heard a great deal of moaning and groaning over the cost as well as over whether the programs purchased actually do the job. That is why the people at CE Software created QuicKeys. CE Software is trying to correct the deficiency in Windows by offering a collection of utilities in one package for the normal purchase cost of just one program. They have also increased the value of their program by including the ability to automate steps within any one or more programs by using macros, or as they call them, Sequences. These Sequences have the ability to work with several programs as the same time, automating the steps to open, enter information, and adjust the programs.
Sequences are very useful.
However, let us first look at the utilities of QuicKeys. Each utility in QuicKeys is activated by use of what the program calls an Action. You choose which Actions you want to setup and use, and how you want to activate them. This means you go through the list and choose the utility, choose a toolbar or a hot key to start it, and then run the Setup Wizard for that Action. The main drawback in the utilities of QuicKeys is that these setup steps have to be done for each and every utility you want to use.
