   Is there a simple code for reading and transmitting infa red for the   
   tv, vcr, dvd etc.   
      
   I have a client who has limited/no use of her hands. I've purchased a   
   tira-2 infa red receiver/transmitter so she could control her tv,   
   vcr,dvd via the computer using dragon speak. the program they   
   suggested to use was Girder..  But this is a very complicated program   
   for her to use.   
      
   All I need is a simple little program that with record a infa red   
   singal and then plays it back when I click on the proper command   
   button.   
      
   Can somebody help?   
      
   Is there a program already available?   
      
   or a simple vb code that will do this?   
      
   Command buttonone  records the IR from the old remote via the tira-2   
   box (usb).   
   and Command button two plays it back via the tira-1 box.   
      
   I know it's porblay not as simple as I make it out to be, but this   
   girder program seems to be made to control the whole house. it's   
   overkill for just a simple turn it on turn it off need.   
      
   Thanks for your help
