Was writing response, when I stumbled across another idea. Found the problem.
I had a variable used as %Date% that should have been Date without the % ends.
Thanks for listening. Problem is gone.

F9 forces the Debug Menu to open
Trying to step thru code. Using F8 is ok, then pressing F9 pops up the Debug Menu. It normally would go into the Run mode from that point. Happens in many locations. Here is current code with problem: //Earlier code that opens FireFox for the first time. ..... ..... Let>vOpen=NO GoSub>OpenWebPage .....

I mentioned that I have an array, vMembers with 12 elements. Each element is about 2000-3000 characcters. I did a RegEx to enter tilde characters (~), and then used Separate command on the tilde to break the large document into smaller manageable elements. The array exists, the elements exist. The A...

Re: Cannot increment array element into variable
Looks like my example was done too fast, it works for me also. So there must be an error in my actual code. Here is from my code: Label>LOOP1 **BREAKPOINT** //Next line is earlier in code outside loop to prime the first element. Included here for testing. Let>vThisRecord=1 //Have an array vMembers w...

Re: Capture from RegEx Match
That was the answer, Marcus. Thank you. Did not need to escape any characters. Here is my final code: RegEx>(?<=<p class="person-id">ID: )[0-9]*?(?=</p>),%vHaystack2%,0,vID,vIDCount,0 The original line in the file was: <p class="person-id">ID: 390783</p> And the RegEx above returned "390783" (withou...

Re: Embed animated gif in dialog/window
I cannot believe that was so simple to make the code! Will have to look deeper in the Help guide to find out how I missed that. Will try this weekend, thank you.

Re: Embed animated gif in dialog/window
Can't believe I am asking about a forum posting that is 15 years old. I have been trying to call up an animation to show progress during a long file opening process. I tried using the Progress Bar in Dialogs, but could not make sense of the parameters, and how to stop the dialog when the file loadin...

Re: Shift-Tab
Be sure to use Let>VAREXPLICIT=1 for the %....% variables. It then requires the %..% when referencing the variable. If VAREXPLICIT=0, then it always uses the literal values that follow. The default if you do not define it =0. From the HELP file: Explicit Variable Resolution - VAREXPLICIT You can tel...

Using version 14.5.7 PRO. Windows 10 PRO, 64 bit. When trying to compile, it accepts all inputs but does not complete. Sends a message window that "destination folder does not exist". Have not seen this before. I thought the default destination is the folder that holds the script. And obviously that...

Easy Pattern syntax for Groups
I have been spending hours with different versions of syntax to figure out how to extract a group using RegEx. I have no problems with other "flavors" of RegEx in other editors. I have come to the conclusion that Macro Scheduler does not do that without using Easy Pattern syntax. I have used Macro S...
