Thanks Floyd - I'll try it again, I must have been doing something wrong!

Does the If Ping Successful work with IP addresses as well as web site names? My tests suggest it doesn't, but I'd like to be sure. If not, is there another way of pinging an IP address? Cheers, Simon

I found the problem - I hadn't set the 'Use Log File' checkbox on the properties page of the second macro. This led to another, minor, problem. I set the 'Log Errors' command to log to a specific file, not the default error log. However, the 'Macro Started' message still goes to the default log, while the 'Macro Finished' message goes to the specified log file. Seems a bit odd!

I have two macros, both with Log Errors as the first command. One macro writes messages to the error log when it starts and ends, as described in the documentation, but the other one doesn't! It only writes a message if an error actually occurs. Can anyone explain this? What am I doing wrong?

Hi Kevin, You've hit the nail on the head - I was running the macro from the scipting editor, whcih shows the macro name as part of the window title. And the name of the macro? 'Launch Lotus Notes'! Many thanks, Simon

Hi, I'm trying to switch to an active window which has a title of 'John Smith - Inbox - Lotus Notes'. I want to use a partial title, but I can't get the Activate Window command to work with either 'Lotus' or 'Notes'. It works perfectly happily with 'John', 'Smith', or 'Inbox'. Is this because there are two hyphens in the window title? Is this a known problem? I really need a way to switch based on the 'Lotus Notes' portion of the title because this is the only bit which is fixed. Thanks in advance, Simon
