Geoff's text was underlined because it is a link to another post, which gives suggestions on the best way to post. Yelling is shown by capitalizing the entire post.

The reason that it will not capture the data when you press the OK button is because the form is closed before Macro Express has a chance to capture the data.

Currently there is not a way to set the Win+arrow keys as a hot key.

Here is what I came up with from your description. I used a truth table to come up with the possible outcomes:

        Corvette               Porsche            Ferarri
Blonde      0                    0                   0
Red         1                    1                   0

This led to this code:

// T1 = Car Type
// T1= Hair Color
Multiple Choice Menu: Car Type
Multiple Choice Menu: Hair
If Variable %T1% contains "A"
 OR
If Variable %T1% contains "B"
 AND
If Variable %T2% <> "A"
 Text Box Display: Wave
Else
 Text Box Display: No Wave
End If

I have also attached a copy of the macro for you to look at.

Logic.mex

We have not had reports of any problems with this feature.

The latest version of the program is 3.7.3.1 (v 3.7c) Click on Help | About to determine the version that you are running. If you are not running 3.7.3.1 (v 3.7c), you will need to download it as previous version are not Vista compatible.

You can troubleshoot the macro by adding a Text Box Display command in the loop with %N10% in the body. This will tell you what N10 is each time the loop repeats.

It may be best to contact the techs at Insight. Their e-mail address is: info@wintools.com.

I do recommend trying to export the macros to a new file and then opening that file if you have not already done so. This will also help the techs at Insight narrow it down a bit.

This is a new one on me.

It is possible that the macro file has somehow become corrupted. Try exporting your macros by clicking on File | Export | Export Macros. Click on the Select All button found at the bottom of the Export window and then save the file. Once you have done that, click on File and select Open File. Browse to the location where you saved the exported macros and load that file.

Unfortunately not. The current options will only allow one or the other.

Unfortunately not. The settings for ShortKeys are all or nothing.

Can you check the task manager to see if macexp.exe is running after the macro crashes. If it is not, it is possible that Macro Express is crashing.

Is it possible for you to show us the macro for us to take a look at and see what might be going on? If you do not want to post the macro, you could also send it to info@wintools.com and one the Insight's techs will take a look at it to determine exactly what is happening.

It may be that the Control key was "stuck" down. If it happens again, try pressing the control key a few times and then try running the macro again. If you notice that this is the case, you may want to use the Control Down and Control Up keys instead of the Control in the Text Type commands. That should give the macro more stability.

Unfortunately this is not an option in Macro Express. I cannot think of any reliable way to make it work either.

Not in this way. You would need to follow the Prompt for Variable with a text type command to type out the contents of the variable into the desired field.

It looks like all you need to do is set up a loop to press the Cntrl+M 5 times. Try something like this:

Activate or Launch: "One" OR "ONENOTE.EXE"
Repeat Start (Repeat 5 times)
 Control Key Down
   Text Type: m
 Control Key Up
Repeat End

You may need to enter a small delay before the end of the loop, depending on your machine, but this should do the trick.

Removed.

Looks like Kevin beat me to the punch on this one.

This is a question that should be posed directly to the sales team at Insight Software Solutions. You can send them an email at: info@wintools.com.

Unfortunately there is not a current way to increase the Message Box or change the font characteristics. We are looking into this option for a future version.

Have you read the help file? Your question is rather vague. What exactly do you want to know about controls? A control is an item on a window such as a button or text box. You can use Macro Express to assign these controls to variables to help control the macro.

If there is something unique about each user, than you should be able to do it. If the users name is in the window title, than you could use a Window Title activation. You may also be able to use a Control Activation if the user has certain options that other users do not have.

If you want to launch the program with a macro, you could even set it up with a Multiple Choice menu at the beginning for the user to select their name or security level and then have the macro run the appropriate commands according to their input.

Is the user interface their own windows login, or are you talking about a program that they log into after logging into windows?

Try using the Launch and Activate command. You will need to place: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Access Runtime\OFFICE11\StartAccess_2003.exe in the Program Path Name field and: -wait=30000 /excl /runtime /profile "ImagineTime" /wrkgrp "C:\Program Files\BothWorldsSoftware\ImagineTime\system.mdw" "C:\Program Files\BothWorldsSoftware\ImagineTime\TB2000.mde in the Program Parameters field.

Click on Options | Preferences in the Macro Explorer and select Network from the options on the left and then uncheck the option File Locking of Macro Files. This should hopefully resolve the issue.

How does it not work? Can you open the macro, but not edit or add commands, or can you not open the macro at all from the Macro Explorer? Also, does it show any messages when you try to open the macro?

Is the window a child (sub) window?

If the window has focus when the macro is activated, you may be able to use the 'Use Current Window' option. Also, if you have not tried already, you may be able to get it to recognize the right window by using the Select Window option from Size or Position a Window options. The window that you wish to use must be open when you double click on the Window Reposition option in the list of commands.

It may not be possible to do this with Macro Express for several reasons:

1. Many games do not use the standard keyboard hooks which Macro Express relies on.

2. You would need to scan the screen by pixel for the color that you are looking for which would take a large amount of time especially since you would need to use the arrow key to rotate and then scan repeatedly.

3. It is against the rules to use macro in Guild Wars. They are constantly scanning for macro users and ban their account when discovered.

There are two options:

If you are using version 3.7 or later, click on Options | Preferences and select Miscellaneous from the list on the left of the Options Window. Once you see the list of miscellaneous options, click on the Advanced button in the bottom right corner of the screen. From here you can turn off the Abort Message by unchecking the Hotkey Abort Macro.

If you are using an earlier version, you can download the tweakme.mxe macro from our website at: http://www.macros.com/downmore.htm. The macro is a playable macro, so it does not need to be loaded into Macro Express to run.

There are several options that you can change in Macro Express by using this macro, including the option to disable the Macro Abort notifications.

There are several versions of the tweakme.mxe file, so be sure to download the right one.
