accept the quest on your main, pop up your quest log. Click share. Then have this macro bound to a button and press it to auto accept on all toons

/script AcceptGroup();
/script AcceptQuest();
/script AcceptTrade();
/script RetrieveCorpse();

Good luck,

As far as "collection" quests go, set loot to FFA, have the main loot everything even when its the second toons turn to collect items. Basically once the main loots, if the collection item did infact spawn on the body it will sparkle for the second toon.

I go for a 'headless' setup. All of my macros use party1 rather than a specific char. like

/assist party1
/follow party1

Make sure loot is free for all. Do the quest and pickups and everything on the first char. Then make the second char the party leader, switch to that screen and repeat. When that's done, go for the third char and then the last char. That way it really doesn't matter which char you are on, just make it the leader and your group will work the the same way no matter what.

This also prevents any char not having money from loot, as they all get a turn at the loot cycle.

sounds like a good solution, but...i havent tried wow maximiser yet, but is there a way to switch a smaller screen with the main screen with...like alt+tab or something?

Just a heads up: on my system anyway, it's not a seamless, instant type thing - there is some delay but it is completely functional, just not something I'd use in the thick of things.

RUN, do not walk, and go get Zanthor's Quest Broadcaster ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=10574') . Then use mouseclick broadcasting (if your app supports it) and revel in the joy of easy looting, flights and quest sequences. ;)
