Is there a way to pass mouse location and click event information to the OS from LabVIEW

Normally mouse info/event goes from the OS to LabVIEW (or other program).  I want to do the opposite.

What OS? If it's Windows, you need to use the Windows API, like "SendMessage" or "SendInput".

As a quick followup, for more information on calling the Windows API from LabVIEW, please consult this KnowledgeBase article.
