That's very interesting and creative. But can you help with the mechanics? How to put a marker etc. I am not aware of a command that will enable jumping to a specific marker inside a macro. I suppose all variables must be backed up to the registry or environment variables?
Do you have an example you can send.
An idea I had and have played with a little is to make my own error handling. I create ‘markers’ where I write something to the registry like “waitfor23” for my twenty-third wait command right before it starts waiting. Then when it’s done waiting wipe out the registry value. At the beginning of the macro I can enable another macro like “error handler” which is set to run on a schedule. At the end of the macro I disable the error handler macro. So if nothing errors all if fine. But if it does error out and the user cancels the macro then the error handler macro is still enabled and will run. It will use that registry value to somehow jump back to that point in the macro or do something else. Crude, but it works.
