I think that you are correct - I'd forgotten that there were two recorders, I'll look at the Web recorder after my meetings.
Thanks for the guidance, Marcus.

Re: VB macro works on XP, error on Win7
Good morning, Marcus. I've attached the .scp file that I'm using. I did try the recorder, but I was trying to avoid mouse positioning, I would much prefer the specificity and readability of the VB script, We can tell exactly what it is doing. The recorder's use of mouse movement is far too ambiguous...

VB macro works on XP, error on Win7
All, I am converting my Macro Scheduler installation from WinXP to Win7 and have one final macro to move, but it is failing. The macro uses VB code to open Internet Explorer, connect to an HP printer, change the paper Tray 1 paper size to Letter, the Tray 1 Type to Any, the Tray 2 Type to Letterhead...

Printing a pdf without having to open it
Part of our daily routine onteh Macro Scheduler is to print pdf files that are created and outputed from BOBI (SAP's latest "Crystal Enterprise" system). Our current install of Macro Scheduler is running on Windows XP and we've been using an old version of Acrobat Reader, v4.0, and exploiting an und...

I can't seriously see us moving to win8 ever. Our lab is just getting ready to move to win7, and that's only on some machines. We still have software that isn't validated to run on win7 yet, and since it is considered a "Medical Device" every version has to go through FDA approval processing (Food &...

So you could just loop through the last n lines: Separate>TELNET_SESSIONLOG,CRLF,lines_array Let>start_line=lines_array_count-25 If>start_line<1>start_line=0 Endif Let>output_text= Let>x=start_line Repeat>x Let>x=x+1 Let>this_line=lines_array_%x% Let>output_text=%output_text%%this_line%%CRLF% Until...

Thanks again for the input above. I've finally gotten a chance to get back to this and your suggestion looks like it could work well. One further question for you - the information that I need to review in the telnet output will be the tail end. Is there a way to display only the tail end of the tel...

I think the point of my example was missed. MessageModal>TELNET_SESSIONLOG Look at the help for the telnet stuff. Macro Scheduler already keeps a log of everything happening in the telnet session in the TELNET_SESSIONLOG variable. Why try to automate another external program when this capability is...

The idea is to keep the user locked out of the telnet session other than what the script allows them to enter. The securty that allows them to change passwords unfortunately allows them to do many other admin functions that the ehlp desk filks should NOT be doing and there's no way to split the pass...
