Hello all, I'm completely new to macros and Macro Express and admittedly unaware of the breadth of what can be done with them. But I have a need that I suspect Macro Express can fill and wanted to ask those who would definitively know. I don't have a big budget and was hoping to use something like MacroExpress with an existing commercial program to get this done. Much of the backbone of what I need to do, as described below, I can now do, for instance with One Note by MS. So, here it is: I need to fill out a form that has 4 sections. The sections are just running lines of text. I'd like to use my tablet pc. I want to create icons that depict things I would usually type into the form as sentences and paragraphs. (As an example, clicking an icon depicting a wall with a "no sign"over it would insert: "A wall was removed according to regulations and approved by my supervisor." I would group the icons according to the section (of the four) they belonged to and produce the form by: 1) opening up a form that would auto-date 2) select a section tab 3) select icons that auto-append one of several pre-set but syntactically equivalent pieces of text it randomly selected into that section 4) have the form auto-append to the last one A possible complication is that many of the icon-to-text macros would need to pause for input generated by (in this case) tapping other icons. Am I barking up the wrong tree or do you guys think can it be done with MacroExpress? Thanks very, very much in advance.
