Can You Run Multiple Macros?

Post by ADP_MAN » Wed May 27, 2015 9:32 pm

Hi All,

I have a very basic question but I cant seem to find an answer for it online. I want to run two macros at the same time on a machine. With my macro already writtem, I click on the icon tray in the bottom right corner of my screen. From there I double clicked on the MS icon which opens a new MS window where I can add multiple macros to a folder. When I click on the first macro, I get the green "Run Now" icon to appear. If I run this, it appears I am unable to run any additional macros. Can someone just confirm that this is true?

Thanks,
Dom

The only way to run two macros at once would be to run them via the command line (e.g. via desktop shortcut - which you can create easily from the toolbar) or compile them (using Macro Scheduler Pro) and then you are able to trigger them separately as separate processes.

Did you know we are now offering affordable monthly subscriptions for Macro Scheduler Standard?
