Thanks so much. This works great. Mark

I have a chunk of text in a string variable, and i want to know how many times a word appears in the text, and where the last occurrance of that word is. I could do it using Text File Process, but i was hoping there was a quicker, easier way. Has anybody done this before? Thanks! Mark

Thank You Stan. This works well.

I am working on a macro that is in a website and would like to go a new url using the Website command without openning a new Internet Explorer window. Does anyone know how to do this? Is there an Internet Option setting that needs to be changed??? -Mark

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProductName" works great. and "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Version" works for internet explorer. Thanks for your quick help!

I would like to write a macro that captures what version of windows is running and what internet browser. I thought for sure I had seen this somewhere, but now I can not find the commands. Can someone help? Thanks!!! -Mark

I have turned off "Enable Tabbed Browsing" and i also checked "Reuse windows for lauching shortcuts" in the advanced settings but it still opens up a new window. Any other thoughts? Thanks!

My PC has been updated with IE7 and i am having some problems with my existing macros that run webpages. In the past whenever i had internet explorer opened and went to open another webpage it would open in the exisiting window. Now it is opening a new window. I had thought that was a setting in Internet Explorer but I don't see that option in IE7. Can anyone help? Thanks!

I have 2 pc's running the same macro. The macro runs all the time. Occasionally when running the ME application crashs. I am not sure why, but I have both PC's set up in the Configure Bug Reporter preferences to auto restart. One pc restarts ME and the macro that was running at the time. The other PC only restarts ME and not the macro. The settings in the Bug configurator is the same on both PC's. The PC that restarts the macro is running Windows 2000. The other PC that is not restarting the macro is running Windows XP. Does this make sense? Does anyone know why one restarts the macro and the other one does not. Thanks! Mark

I have a macro that appends to a txt file multiple times. Every once in awhile that txt file locks up and the macro aborts when it trys to append. The only way I can free up that file again is to shut down my PC. Has anybody run into this problem? Any idea why the file is locking up? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Mark

I have a macro that i use the "if file exists" command with a wildcard in the file name. I just came upon the documentation that states this command does not support wildcards. I don't seem to have had any problems running this macro, but i think i want to change it anyway. How can i have the macro check for a file with a wildcard and continue on. I have tried "wait for File Exist" but i don't want to wait. If it is not there then i want the macro to move on. Any suggestions? Thanks Mark

Thanks for the suggestions. I am not sure any on these suggestions will work for all circumstances. I think what i am going to try is running a macro on another PC that checks the error log for error messages and emails me the errorlog as an attachment. Mark

I have a macro the runs all day. I would like to be notified via email when the macro has stopped, ended or aborted. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks! Mark

Thanks Kevin, I was able to get it to work with your help. Mark

Good day, I am trying to create a macro that repeats 10 times, each loop it assigns a variable a random number between 1-10. But it can not use the same number twice. It needs to use every number between 1 and 10. Is there an easy way to do this??? Thanks! Mark
