Getting ready to upgrade from 8.1 soon.

Thanks Samrae. That works. Much easier for me as working with the variables turned out to be a bit beyond my skills at this point.

I will give that a try. Thanks much.

What would be the best way to do this: Macro 1 plays an alarm once at 90 minutes. Then it does not start the 90 minute countdown again until Macro 2 completes. Macro 2 would be independent of Macro 1 and is triggered by a hotkey. Thanks!

You're a genius! I was about to give up on ME after years of using it, tried your solution and now it's working like a champ. Thank you!

Ah! I thought this was their support forum. I will contact them. Thanks much.

Wow. No help on the forum here. So has this program just been abandoned?

Since I installed Windows 8 (64-bit) on a new desktop I've had nothing but problems with ME, so much so that's it become pretty much useless. For instance I wrote macros with numberpad keys 1-9 as hotkeys for Win keys 1-9. Sometimes they work, sometimes not. In ME if I right click and choose "Run Macro Now" they ALWAYS work so I'm baffled why they don't work with the assigned hotkeys. I've also tried using the "Activate Window" commands in the same way, assigning the numpad keys as the hotkeys with the same inconsistent results. Anyone else having such issues with ME and Windows 8?

Ok. VB is way beyond me, but thanks anyway. H

There's one command to open (eject) and one to close the dvd tray. Is there a way to make it open if closed and vice-versa, using one macro? Thanks much, Harold

Thanks so much, rberq! Looks great. Harold

Is it possible to write a macro that would delete all files in a specific folder that were X number of days old? If so, could someone get me started on how I'd do that? Thanks much, Harold

Thanks MGuy, I've use wallpaper changers in the past but when I noticed ME had a wallpaper command I figured I'd rather use it if possible, thus avoiding having yet another program running in the background. I ended up using a macro that someone else wrote and it works great. I assigned a hotkey to it and then set one of my Logitech G15 macro keys to that, so now I can change my wallpaper at a whim w/the press of a key using ME. Very nice. Harold

Ok, thanks Cory. Harold

I don't understand how to use the Wallpaper command to create a macro to rotate wallpapers. I only see that one can point it to one specific image and have that become the wallpaper. How do I cycle between images in a folder so each time I activate the macro a different wallpaper is set? (BTW, I just got all set up in Vista and ME is running fine, no problems.) Thanks, Harold
