  1. The application needs to be already running, so I don't think I can use the lanuch program command. Here is teh macro: <ACTIVATE2:MDF File Import> <REM2:Initialization> <TVAR2:10:01:D:\Archive_Documents\Customers\Auto Data Analysis\MDF_Reader\> <TVAR2:11:01:%T10%openfilemacros.txt> <REM2:Process the file> <DIS:<TFILE:D:\Archive_Documents\Customers\Auto Data Analysis\MDF_Reader\openfilemacros.txt> <BTFBEG:001:000001:000000:%T11%> <RUNMACVAR:1> <BTFEND> text file contains: open file 1 open file 2 open file 3 Thanks, Stuart
  2. I'd like to test a custom windows application I have created by writing a macro to get it to load a succession of files and perform operations on them. I can't just open the file from windows because they are not associated with the application. For example, its like writing a macro to tell Excel to open a series of .txt files. The only way I thought you could do this was to capture individual macros for opening each file, put those macro name in a text and read them in one at a time. I was using the "process text file" example, reading in each line, assiging it to a varible, then using the run macro in variable commnand. I have 3 macros: open file 1, open file 2, open file 3, and I put them into a text file as: open file 1 open file 2 open file 3 I've verified that the trsings ar egetting into the variable. But all I get is text coming out into my other application. Any suggestion to do this? Perhaps I need to use a special syntax for the macro name in the text file? Or is there an easier was to do the required task? Thanks, Stuart
