hi all,
not sure if this is possible - have tried searching the forum and helpfiles without quite finding what i'm looking for. the situation is this - interacting with an application, my macro asks the user for a numeric code which it then uses to perform a further operation, and this all works fine. however, what i'd really like to do is take the number input by the user, then search for it in a text file, retrieve the text string equivalent of the number and then display that in a confirm dialog. i've got as far as experimenting with the Text File Begin Process command but haven't got much further than that - anyone got any ideas?
thanks very much in advance for any help,
andy

hi all,
am very new to ME so please forgive me if i'm missing something really obvious. i've got the following macro section which throws up an error about there being a missing end if statement when it executes, but i can't see anything wrong with it and no syntax errors are reported when i check. variable %N1% has been set immediately prior to this section.
any help greatly appreciated!

hmm, really should have waited before posting - knowing to use 'lookup' as my search term could have saved us all the trouble! anyway, for anyone who's interested, the following thread has got some very useful stuff
