Hello. Will this work on a new vista laptop? I am using home premium. If so, I need it to be able to replace BBB with:
Want a chance to win coins? See if you can find the secret. ENTER Visit www.website.com for more info. ENTER

ENTER= Pressing the enter key

So whenever I press B three times (bbb) it will come up with the above.

Yes.

Vista has some issues with AHK, but it'll probably work.

You don't need to send the three backspaces

Thanks. I used the first posted one. The second one did not work. It is working wonderfully for my needs.

Whoops, you probably needed the Enter key instead of newlines Mad

Oh, didn't know you the autoreplace hotstrings worked exactly like a send command, where you could send {enter} and such... well anyway. It's the same thing anyway, just a couple lines shorter.
