How to make this programme?

Hi, I am not much of a techie but wan tot know how I could create a programme for my father in law, he would like to have 10 different betfair accounts click on one button to bet on all 10 accounts at the same time ....he has a system which I don't altogether understand but could get to know if I had to and could help him create a system?

Hope this makes sense!! thanks!

You could do it using Windows Script Host (JScript, VBScript etc.) or VBA to automate Internet Explorer. The program would open the Betfair site in multiple IE browsers, access the HTML and programmatically log in and submit bets. Not an easy project, particularly for a novice.

I used to use Autohotkey, but I can't remember much about it.

I found it quite easy to learn the basics - and you can do a lot with that without getting too advanced

Not sure what he's trying to achieve with opening 10 accounts. Betfair are usually on the ball and will most likely terminate most or all of these accounts.

On the Betfair site, there is a programmers section, where you can get loads of code for automating betting. It does require you to have good programming knowledge though.

It is illegal to have 10 accounts in the same name I do believe on betfair...
