Automation possible?

I am trying to make my pc add automatically a bluetooth device by just double-clicking an icon on my desktop.
So I thought of making a batch that would open "devicepairingwizard" (I found that it can be opened just by typing it in the command line box); and then add automatically the device knowing its name or address(mac address) .
But is the creation of such batch possible? If yes, how should I proceed?
Thanks in advance!

I don't think it's possible with batch, but it is with AutoIT. AutoIT is a freeware scripting language that can not only read/write files and the registry, but it can also simulate keypresses and mouseclicks. It can also do much more. The script has a BASIC like syntax. You can also compile the scripts as executables as well so that AutoIT doesn't have to be installed. To check it out, go to http://www.autoitscript.com/.
