  1. Rep has 4.7.1.1 installed on their computer. When they run any macro they get this message. Title Bar: Configuration Error (Red x) The application is terminating. Check validity of the configuration file. We have uninstalled and re-installed the program and we continue to get this message. Any thoughts?
  2. Hi Cory, Sorry for the delay. I'll buy you a case of Coca Cola. But here in the South....everything is a Coke. BTB (Back to Business): Your comment reads..."Use this Macro". You didn't mention the name and nothing's attached. So are you referring to your post above that with the "Control Example.mex"? I'll check it out and then let you know. If you meant to attach another one, please do so and I'll check back a little later. Thanks again for your help.
  3. Just don't see how it's supposed to "enter text" for you. I used the Sample and edited it to fit my program "Facets". So help me connect the dots when you have time.
  4. Picture is worth a thousand words - Maybe this will help. Again, been reading for 6 hrs on this and trying different stuff. I think the order is something. Sure would like to use it.
  5. I've been reading up on the use of the Window Controls. I found this in my reading and wanted to follow the steps submitted back in 2005, but I can't find them in the Macro Express pro Help section. It is called "Help Topic Organizer". The instructions are unclear to me. There are 4 options: - Capture Control - saves the Window Control info in a variable that is used during playback. The "Control information" is capture during playback of the macro. use the Get Control command to obtain the control information during the create of the macro. - Clear Control Cache - - Get Control - The "Get Control Command" saves the control information in a variable. A capture utility is launched to select buttons, edit boxes, etc that can be used later in the mater. Use the Capture Control command to obtain the control information during the playback of the macro. - Set Focus - Like Window Activate. Brings window to the front and sets focus to the control. Most useful for edit box controls (I'm assuming drop downs, text boxes, etc. Set Focus on the edit box and then use the Text Type command. PS - I saw the Sample - Great Video. Walking through the Sample video: WordPad Get Control - After the Window is Open - you Get the exe of the program using the "Z" Order. Few Lines down - You "Send Text Directly to Control %variable%): text says yadda yadda yadda Notepad Get Control - using Z order %variables% I noticed that you didn't open Notepad first. So you set the variable using an Open Notepad First. Next Line of code is Launch Notepad: Why Get Control BEFORE you open the Program. You can't get focus with the Get Control then. Are there steps you follow using these "control Commands" like "Do this First, then 2nd, then 3rd" to get them to work? I've read about 25 post, but these commands are mentioned after the fact.
  6. Good Stuff. Thanks so much. I'll take this to the team as well. I appreciate you as always. Quick response and Great Customer Service.
  7. We are having to use Sellenium to work with Edge but are wanting to continue to use Macro Express since Edge doesn't read the DOMs object. We are still figuring this out.
  8. Thanks Corey, I'll bring this to the table for our "Team Discussion".
  9. Thanks Cory, I am thinking we are looking to load "Sellenium" as external script. Edge required drivers to link the script and Edge. We set ASCII variables (Tab, CRLF) in prompts. However, you are saying you load alot of ASCII characters in a .txt file on your "c" drive. Then load the .txt file in MEP which you use in the External script you choose? (JScript, VBScript or HTA/HTML). I'm sorry, but the last sentence confuses me.
  10. I need confirmation (and can't find on the main Insight Software site), that Macro Express Pro uses Javascript and not JScript. We use the external script tool to open URLs and write data into the ID fields of the URL. JScript works with IE9 however JScript 10 is AKA JScript.net Since our companies are moving to "Edge" as their Default Browser, I am wondering what the external script "Jscript" actually references. Also, does this program allow us to import external scripts? IE, Does it allow external scripts to be imported and if so, any specifics would be helpful. Thanks
  11. The articles you provided will be helpful. I appreciate the links and will refer back to them. Referring to your comment about Kevin's Support Page, "Have you checked out the sample on the ISS support page?" I started there first, but Kevin didn't provide examples of passing variables/parameters so I thought the , (comma) was needed. I use commas passing variables/parameters in the VBS External file and it works, so I assumed I needed commas on the JScript. This error was totally missed by me. By removing the , (comma) between the variables it now works. I will be passing multiple variables into the external script. On any given day, I may pass numbers, strings like state names, and others will be patient account numbers to manipulate the data. Also to reduce code, I am grateful that you showed me in some instances I don't have to pass the parameters as the External Script will read them. This will be so helpful in some circumstances and will be easier to code!! Love this! All scenarios work. This is my jobs staple program and I'm so grateful for your help. We use this tool to save hours of repetitive processes/manpower and I'm grateful that the solution was so easy. I love this site BTW.
  12. We are moving to JavaScript so I need to convert my old codes to this program. In Macro Express I set 2 variables, for this example: xInt = 3, and yInt = 4. Set in Macro Express as Intergers I Create an External Script (JScript) is the language. Script Language Parameters line reads like this: %xInt%, %yInt% Save Console Output is: %Output% My Code within the External Script (JavaScript) I've used 2 very simple codes - Neither one works. I feel like I'm missing something. Picture .png attached.
  13. I'm having trouble reading more than one parameter that I set in Macro Express and am brining into the external script Line Parameters. I'm using JavaScript. My external parameters are: %x%, %y% (previously set in Macro Express as intergers although they get imported into the JS external script as strings) In the external script (I selected JavaScript). xValue = WScript.Arguments(0); yValue = WScript.Arguments(1); I can read send either the xValue or the yValue to the Console back to Macro Express so I know they are importing. I convert them to numbers then try to attempt math (X+y) and export the total in a z variable through the console back to Macro Express. When I get the -1.#IND error from the console in a pop-up I created in Macro Express. Note: I've set all the variables to numbers. I also got another error message that indicates the paramater wasn't big enough. Any suggestions?
