29/01/24: Version 0.91 - Added option to override the target application window, text file first line value will be used if override text box is empty
22/01/24: Version 0.9 - Added tooltips to buttons, displays text in fourth parameter in the selected text file, ignored if missing
13/07/22: Version 0.88 - Changed time that dialog flashes green to show detection successful from one second to 100 milliseconds. Buttons are disabled if specified window not detected.
07/04/21: Version 0.1b Bug fix - always helps when you test your code before you upload it, I had removed a process that captured the window id critical for the operation.

Useful information:

On application start all text files in the directory used will be shown in the list box control. Selecting one of the names will load the configuration which will dynamically show buttons for each entry

The format of the text files used by the app are as follows:

Target Window Title
Send text no question,,text to send,Button tooltip text
Send text one question,question 1,text to send ##1,Button tooltip text
Send text two questions,question 1#question 2,text ##1 to send ##2,Button tooltip text
Send text three questions,question 1#question 2#question 3,##1 text to send ##3 ##2,Button tooltip text

The first line containing the "Target Window Title" wording does not need to include the full title. As an example if you had a window with "Test - Notepad", any combination of wording would work, "Test"/"Notepad" etc. However it is case-sensitive, "test" or "notepad" would not work.

The colours of the buttons are significant:

Light blue - stored text with no questions to ask the user
orange - stored text with one or more questions to ask the user
dark blue - empty text, clicking on it will show an edit box where its parameters can be defined, saving the info will write the changes back to the file being used and display a new unused dark blue button either below or to the right depending on the positioning

The current text file can be viewed/edited by clicking the the "CONFIGURATION FILE:" text above the list of files. If modified the file will be reloaded and the buttons updated to reflect the contents

As the text files are using comma seperated values (CSV) for the parameters this means you cannot have a comma in any of the separate parameters as it will stop the file from being loaded correctly. 
If this is identified as an issue I will investigate alternative methods to read the information
