Compiled macro's need to stay trim, although the option to include the graphics might be OK. If considering anything this direction, I'd recommend all graphics be 'compiled' into a separate file, that we can call from within our macro, specifying image by number in sequence (1,2,3 for 1st, 2nd, 3rd)...

I want to send a compiled macro that gives audio feedback depending on success or failure, when run. However, I want to avoid the need to send specific .wav files & specify locations, etc. I also don't feel I can depend on any specific .wav file to be found in the windows folder - for that matter, I...

Did you guys ever get an answer on this? Any word from support? It's great(!) that we can use APP_TITLE to make our application name appear on the task-list and on msg & mdl window titles... but how can we assign our own icon to the task bar? Do we need to add this as an improvement request, or is t...

OK, creating a new account worked - thanks. You may want to consider adding a 'Create new account' button to the right side of the bugtracker login screen. Although it's on the menu, I wasn't looking for it and didn't notice. Since I was already 'registered' with the discussion group, I expected my ...

I've tried to log into the bugtracker program off and on for over a month, to no avail. It had my login name in the email box, but when I put in my password, I get 'invalid login'. I've tried the full email address, I've tried both upper and lower case, and I've tried the 'email my password' - which...

True - I didn't think about that distinction (SQL -vs- VB) when I initially posted. And, I usually do my digging, but it was one of those frustrating days... I guess I was hoping to avoid actual effort!

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the replies, but Left(Name,8) still gave the same results. I dug a little further, and made it work by using the LIKE operative , instead of "= Left(x,y)". The sample code is shown below. I hope this is helpful to others SUPPORT - consider if this snippet (derived from your previous effor...

"WW_TIMEOUT always evaluates to .....WW_TIMEOUT....literally. never a numeric value." Set this early in your macro: Let>VAREXPLICIT=1 Then set all variables with % % on each side, like this: %WW_TIMEOUT%. Again, post any code that doesn't seem to be working & I'll try to look it over... g/l ~Marvin~

I'm weak on VB syntax - a little help would be great: I have compiled macros named TestProg-something, TestProg-another, TestProg-xyz, etc. When each is run, I want to ensure none of the others are still active - if they are, I will simply exit from the new macro without doing anything. The code bel...

Also consider: not every program that says 'not responding' is crashed. (a) - the program may simply be too 'busy' crunching a big task to talk right now (consider the program's function), or (b) - some other program can be hung or hogging resources, which can cause many other programs on the list t...

Based on what you're saying, I created the following code: ------------------------------------ let>WW_TIMEOUT=3 LET>WF_TYPE=2 Press ctrl send>c release ctrl WWO>TESTING If>WW_RESULT=FALSE,NOWINDOW SET>TESTING Goto>Endit LABEL>NOWINDOW GAW>TITLE,X,Y MSG>TITLE LABEL>ENDIT ----------------------------...

I agree... quite handy. Far better than putting a bunch of 'wait>x' commands throughout the macro with a 'let>x=0' that gets changed to 'let>x=1' at the beginning (junk lines w/macro editing... clumsy).

Taking this a step further... is there any way to create a compiled macro that will run as if /HIDE /NOSYSTRAY switches were used, without having switches in the shortcut. (say we just click on the EXE - no switches possible... but I want it to run 'stealth' by default) If there's no way to add some...
