Answer 1

if the control has a "ClickablePoint" you can use this code

            System.Windows.Point p = theButton.GetClickablePoint();
            AutoItX3Lib.AutoItX3Class au3;
            au3 = new AutoItX3Lib.AutoItX3Class();
            au3.AutoItSetOption("MouseCoordMode", 0);
            au3.MouseClick("LEFT", (int)p.X, (int)p.Y, 1, -1);

where AutoItX3Lib is the C# API for AutoIt
