I have a third party GUI that manages some hardware.

I want to control the hardware from a Python script.

This seems to mean I need to somehow have Python code

Is this possible / easy / doable?

Thanks!

Hi Chris

THere are two approaches for this. If the appication is inheritenty controllable, e.g. through COM, then you can use win32com.

Alternatively, you can go down the route of "Robotic Process Automation" using something like https://github.com/OakwoodAI/Automagica

Hope this helps,
