I am using citrix to access a application remotely. I am not able to use winrunner as it dosent identify objects as application is not installed on working PC. Is there any tool to automate such application
Citrix has a product called EdgeSight. Tevron has a product called CitraTest.
Have you looked at using AutoIt? It has a built-in recorder to record your keystrokes and mouse movements/clicks, which you can then dump into a script and playback. You can also reference certain windows that present and preform special actions against such as hiding them or, adding/removing controls...really just about anything you want. They also have a great community forum see here
Is tevron Citrab Test tool is an open source tool?
Citratest will work for what you are describing, but it is not open source.

Is there any way to automate Edge in IE mode using VBA without Selenium drivers. Will it work in same way as how it works in IE. We need to use the same code in VBA.

This can be done with some upgrades to windows and a small modification to registry.
I want know about test automation in VeriFone terminals--is possible or not? Is there anyway to do automation for it?
There is a tool called VeriFind that is packaged with the DTK that is supposed to be for this purpose (note: I've never used it).
From the documentation:
The VeriFind Test Automation Tool is an integrated testing tool that
aids testing applications written for Verix eVo terminals. This
Windows-based tool simulates user actions, such as key presses and
magnetic card swipes, which help automate the execution of test
suites. It provides a scripting utility, file transfer utility,
screens on the terminal, RAM status, date and time as in the terminal,
and records user actions to play back later.
I have been trying to figure out how to capture an image withing my Microsoft Access 2007 application using a webcam.
We have been paying for a 3rd party application for this in the past - it is used for taking ID card photos, but the software has grown buggy over time, and I think we should be able to accomplish this ourselves!
All I need is for my Access application to use the webcam to capture the image and save it in a network share. That's it!
I have been trying to hunt down vba code, twain drivers, ActiveX controls... but they all seem to be either deprecated (Access 97/2000) or proprietary! There's got to be some other solution out there though!
You could possibly shell out to another app (using the vba Shell function) that can take a snapshot from the webcam and save it to a file. I found one example:

Good luck.
I am looking for information on using mstscax.dll in VB. The goal is to create a utility that logs into a remote service in the same manner as remote desktop. However, my utility is not required to show the desktop.
I have a series of commands that I will start off with that will look for users, reset logins, shadow, and message. I have been using a batch file on my RDP to perform these functions, but we are already looking for more functionality and power than what the batch commands can offer.
I am googling 'mstscax.dll' but the results have been less than satisfactory although I continue to search. Does anyone have any good references? Is this even going to be possible?
If you are looking to list or perform operations on remote desktop sessions, you might find the Cassia library helpful. The library can list users logged on to a server, disconnect or logoff sessions, shadow sessions, and display message boxes in a session, among other things. (Note that the shadowing functionality requires a pre-release version of the library available on the project's build server -- use the artifacts link.)
I think you're supposed to use the msrdp.ocx control rather than that dll, though I've personally never used either so can't say for sure.
Edit: Add link
Here's a codeproject article about automating RDP:

I am writing a custom xulrunner-based app and I wish to have some files deployed in the user profile the first time the application is run.
I placed the files in my application's defaults/profile directory but they did not get copied to user's profile during the first run of the application.
Should I write some additional code or this should happen automatically?
The thing that gets copied for sure is the application default preferences.
Is there a "standard" way offered by Firefox or some of the many mozilla applications?
Any link to some reading will be helpful.
Any hint is valuable.
Thanks in advance.
Unfortunately the standard way of doing first run code is to use the pref system to determine if you have or haven't done something yet. There are a few gotchas though:
Make sure this code only runs once. If your firstrun code is in an overlay or main browser window, it can be run multiple times (once per window)
after you run the code and set the pref, make sure you flush the prefs, since prefs are written on close and will only be saved when you close.
Components.classes['#mozilla.org/preferences-service;1']
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPrefService)
.savePrefFile(null);
You could also use the preferences system in concert with querying for an extensions version number. When the version changes, call your function. That would allow you the flexibility to call the function again later if you want - but only at a version change.
