I was also and had never thougt of it or seen any other example of the "OR" between "WAIT FOR.." After seing Bernd.Frisch post I immediately added it to several of my existing macros. Thanks Bernd.Frisch

What version of Rumba? I use Rumba at work. It's a terminal emulator program that we use to connect to a mainframe system.

I would definitely recommend learning how to use the Switch/Case commands. Floyd certainly demonstrated that you certainly can eliminate many lines using them. Thanks to Floyd for demonstrating how to use multiple case values to run one set of commands. I always tried AND/OR but never had much luck, so I had to duplicate my ME code for each case value. Not anymore though. Kudos to randallc, I enjoy seeing code transformed into a leaner and meaner version.

www.sysinternals.com has some great utilities and I've seen PSExec utility at some previous time. I certainly could use it and accomplish some of the same things I do with the other Registry software I use. It certainly has some potential with some other projects that I have. Thanks.

I'm guilty of this myself, but I think some of us forget or maybe haven't noticed the "Search for Command:" box at the bottom of the Command pane in the ME Editor window. For example, to find the Get Pixel Color command, just start typing the command you're looking for and you will be taken to it.

I see you got your answer in another post. I missed th mouse clicky thing too. Shheeez!

Everything sure looks fine. Maybe possible add a short delay after the mouse move command. Sometimes I find this necessary. Instead of the second mouse move to the next field, can you get focus to it by using the TAB key? Even a bunch of TAB keystrokes played back by ME can complete very quickly.

That would be a dream come true.

I have the same issue with ME 3.5c and W2K. Restore Keyboard Hooks doesn't resolve the problem. Restarting ME fixes the issue but sometimes it reoccurs rather quickly while other times it may not happen until the next day. I thought maybe it was something wrong with m computer but seems as if others are having the same problem. I never experienced this with previouse versions.

Thanks to Les and all the others in the forum who have shared their personal macros. I know I appreciate and am sure there are others that do also.

I use an free utility called RegShot (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download965.html) to track down changed registry items. Here is a brief description: You can run RegShot, make your changes to the mouse settings and then run RegShot again. It will show what Registry items and/or files were add, deleted or changed.

I'm there!!!!

To do this, these windows would need to be active during text type. I'm not sure what other things you could do without causing your windows that ME is interacting with to loose the focus. As far as I know, you can only have one active window.

Can you provide anymore details about the link you want to click on. Application? Is it always the same link? Same location on page?

I forgot to ask what version of ME are you using?

Not sure what might going on with your setup but I was able to get my ME install to do what you are attempting to accomplish. My first ME command activated the Messenger Service window and then typed <ENTER>. I was able to get the macro to work by both Window Title and Control on Top Activation methods. Maybe the Control Activation would work for you if the Window Title is not.

Maybe uninstall/reinstall will solve your issue.

I use AutoIt to perform certain task and even sometimes use it along with ME. AutoIt is a free scripting tool and can rename Window Titles among many other tasks. AutoIt Example code from AutoIt Help file: WinSetTitle, <Window Title>, [Window Text], <New Title> Use this command to rename a window. e.g. Run, notepad.exe WinWaitActive, Untitled - Notepad WinSetTitle, Untitled - Notepad,, Renamed Notepad!

Let us know how it turns out.

Everything looks good with your ME commands. Is cursor's location in your application possibly being affected when you issue the Clipboard Copy command. I have seen this behaviour with a few applications. I would suggest putting a break in on the If Clipboard Text Equals "Screen" line and so that you can see what happens in your application after the Clipboard Copy command is completed.

That looks great. I have been a ME user for several years and I have been patiently waiting for the ability to do this. Even though it's not just native to ME, this workaround is greatly appreciated.

Maybe try another “Set Integer – Get position of Text in a Text Variable” after you have extracted the first name. Then try "If Variable %N1% > 0" If it's greater than 0, then you know there is a middle initial and you can then remove it and trim the remaining text.

Maybe you can have ME save the mail message as a text file using your email program and then have ME open the file with you text editor of choice. Most email program should allow you to save a HTML mail message as text. Once saved as a text file then you no longer have to worry about any viruses or malicious code.

Thanks for the info joe. I did a little more looking around in ME Preferences and under Playback, I disabled both "Restore CAPS Lock State when Finished Playing a Macro" and "Turn CAPS Lock Off when Starting a Macro" Now the Caps Lock command functions as I expected them to.

It may just be me but ME only seems to be able to toggle Cap Locks. If I use the CAPS Lock On command and it is already ON, ME turns it OFF instead of ignoring the command. Same thing happens with the CAPS Lock Off command. If CAPS LOCK is OFF, ME turns it ON. Anyone have any suggestions or know of any programs that can actually determine the CAPS LOCK state?
