Stupid Stupid question

Please don't beat me up too much.

In the good old days I used to write scripts, to run multible programs, and perform many different tasks in DOS. I know that was long ago.

So, I want to do this on XP. Is it still called a script, and how can I get info on making one? All of my searches seem to lead to web hosting, and ITadministration.

Details: I have to put a number into a hyperlink and hit enter, click on my telnet, past the number, hit enter, and click on another program, past my number there and run program. I have to do this 150 times aday. Help.

Oh! New to forum. Hope I posted this in the right place.
