Hello all,
I'm a Tech Recruiter and ME has saved my work day. I've automated everything in my workflow process and could not be more thankful for this product.
Currently I'm looking for a better Macro that will dial #'s for me using the "new call" feature in outlook.
NOTE: My phone is linked to outlook and outlook dials via modem.
My current macro (attached) copies a person's phone number to a variable, activates outlook, brings the New Call dialog up, inserts the variable (the number) and dials the #
Is there something that I can do from within ME that will pull up a New Call dialog without having to activate Outlook in order to activate the New Call dialog?
It would be great because, as it stands now, everytime I want to make a call I have to navigate away from whatever page I'm currently looking at.
Any help, as always, is very much appreciated.

Hi ya'll...
First and foremost... Macro Express ROCKS! I've never experienced a more user friendly Tool, Support Staff, or User Community. Awesome
Just wanted to post a fun question: What is the coolest thing you've ever done with ME? And please don't be humble about it. Let it all hang out
Cheers,

The Throbber suggestion worked like a charm!!
I changed the throbber so that it was blue when IE was inactive and red when loading. Had to fudge with the graphic and SmBrandBitmap Reg entry quite a bit. Couldn't ever get the bitstrip to take up all of the space available for the graphic. Wound up using 22 X 22 X 264 for the BitStrip. I really don't care about the look of it...just want to know EXACTLY when IE stops loading the page so my macro can continue unabated.
Then I wrote the Macro (aptly dubbed "wait for web page"..cheeky eh?) below:
You'll notice that I have it set up to check the pixel color every .5 seconds and that I have it repeat for up to 30 possible cycles. This gives my pages up to 15 seconds to load. I have a T1 so if the page takes longer than that I just skip that step in the macro and move on to the next.
Now I run this macro instead of using the "timed delay" command whenever I want to load a new page.
Works like a charm. Thanks for all the great advice. Thanks to this I have cut 3 minutes off of a 9 minute routine. Huge timesaver and it's fullproof.
Cheers!

Sorry Sys Ad.
