Does any of you programmers know how I can program any of the mouse buttons (duble clicking left or right button or even single clicking the roller) to produce a check mark or even an X in a text file.

We have purchased a windows application written in Access that uses various text fields and gets texts with text already defined from access database. I'd like to insert a text file that has forms like:
GENDER ( ) Female ( ) Make

And then users be able to just click a button on the mouse to select it (checkmark preferred or an X is fine), rather than typing an X in ( ).

Thank you
Shawn
 
Have you considered Autokeys macros?
 
For Autokeys macros. I have looked in Windows help file. It has hotkeys which are mostly pre-defined. I am not a programmer. Can you tel me where I find instruction for making (CONTL+left click) to be a checkmark or even Capital X.
Thanks so much
Shawn
