Hi, I've come across an weird problem. I'm use Macro Express for gaming and when I set a macro to press any number or letter, it doesn't register while playing a game. However, when I open up the chatbox to chat in-game, the macro types out the keys. Somehow, the game is recognizing the Text Type function while chatbox is open but not when it's closed. Any keys other than numbers or letters work fine like F1-F12, Home, PageUp, PageDown, etc. Is there something going on with any settings that would fix this? Any help would be very much appreciated.

WOW, thanks for all your help. That works perfect.

Hm, that's a little too advanced for me as I haven't had too much experience with the program. Any chance you could break it down Barney style? If not, I understand. My current macro works but it's just the 1 second lag in between that really hurts twitch gaming. Wish the response was instant.

Hi, everyone, having a bit of trouble. I'm trying to substitute one key for 5 different keys, with each successive press of one key cycling through the 5 different keys. For example, I'd like F10 to cycle through 1,2,3,4,5. First press substituting F10 for 1, second press substitution F10 for 2, etc. The only way I can think of to achieve this is through the Wait For Key Press and the Type Text command. However, through this way, I'm getting some bad lag between the F10 keypress and the substitued key registering. I'm mainly using this macro for a game so the lag is hurting the performance of the macro in-game. Perhaps someone might know of a faster way or maybe some options I can change to make it instantaneous? I have a 3Ghz, 2gig mem machine so I don't think hardware is a factor. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
