The reason is because I have a number of programs I want to run in order to help ensure the computer is cleaned "Virus checking, adware removal, updating, removal of old files, etc.. and I want to run them in like how a CGI Cron Job works.. And have this done at night while I am sleeping and then have the computer turn off automatically at the end because the computer draws a LOT of power to have left on over night when not being used.

I'd like to be able to shutdown the computer at the end of the macro. How would I do this?

Hmm.. Interesting.. How would I copy a page to the clipboard tho? Also, if I used a "IF CLIPBOARD CONTAINS".. what next? What's the action? how to program an ELSE go to action type command? If = Question.. But how do you set the action to do IF the IF statement is true? How would I also check if the clipboard contains a PARAGRAPH? Seems "if clipboard contains" has a single lined field..

If it possible and if so, HOW? so to make a program execute commands only if specific text on a webpage is found. IE. In basic terms.. IF "Click here" exists on a webpage then go to a section of the script that executes a series of commands. IF NOT, then exit, or go to a different part of the script to execute something else in the script. Basically I know how to look for a series of text on a webpage but I'd like to do something else if the text does NOT exist.. Thanks

"pardon my french" (not literally) HOLY CRAP!! This is EXACTLY the same words as I just emailed the author to find the answer to and here you post the exact same thing, word for word "MOVE MOUSE TO SELECTED TEXT ON WEBPAGE". JEEZ!!

There MUST be a way to do this but I can't figure out how.. Basically I have a set of commands I want to execute. Then I want to REPEAT it again but of course more efficiant to NOT copy/paste 20 commands all over again. With PHP you have Functions.. where you create a function with all the commands in it, then you simply have one line to execute that function again..

But what if the link location changes from screen to screen. And could only be found by it's keyword or phrase? Is there a way for ME to put the cursor down whereever the keyword (search the page for the following word/phrase if you will...) or phrase is? Thanks

I am wondering if there is a way to make Macro Express move the cursor to a WORD or GROUP of WORDS on a page? EXAMPLE: 1. Looking for the word "Click Here" (Which is a hyperlink) 2. Put the cursor on there and CLICK IT.

How would you send to multiple controls?

I am wondering IF this is at all possible, and if so, HOW? With FIREFOX Browser open with multiple TABS open in it, I want to run a macro that will run in all the tabs at the same time. Macro Playback Speed: Normal Speed // Delay 150 Milliseconds Mouse Left Button Down Mouse Left Button Up Delay 500 Milliseconds Text Type: <CONTROL>f Delay 1 Seconds Text Type: <ALT>n Text Type: [I'll enter the text in here] Delay 1 Seconds Text Type: <ENTER> Delay 296 Milliseconds Text Type: <ESC> Delay 296 Milliseconds Text Type: <ENTER> Delay 150 Milliseconds I would like this command line to run in ALL the tabs that are open in the firefox browser at the SAME TIME. IS THIS POSSIBLE? HOW? thanks

Excellent, thanks!

Is there a way to split a macro into seperate instructions? Similar to how PHP FUNCTIONS work; you can call the function (more efficiant) in the script so you don't have to copy/paste the same thing over and over again in the same script? Let's say the instructions are to do the same thing. A good example of this would be say: 1. Mouse move screen 1/2 (X/Y) location 2. Left click down 3. Left Click up 4. Tab 5. Type text 6. tab 7. ENTER And I want to repeat this part but rather change copy/pasting it each time and resullting in a large macro full of duplicatiing series of instructions , have it as a function where I simply call the function over. Thanks

I have gone through the tutorials and help me files and am still so confused about the CONTROL features: ie. What does the following do and WHEN do you use them: 1. GET CONTROL 2. CAPTURE CONTROL Thanks I basically want to send grouo of commands to the background window but don't know how or WHICH control (GET or CAPTURE?) to use ? Let's say I activate the forground Firefox browser window with a webpage in it. I load like Notepad in the forground (browser now in background), I want to send a TEXT TYPE to the Firefox browser in the background.. Do I need to use a GET or CAPTURE for the browser window (to set to C?)? Thanks

Is there a way to send either CONTROL+TAB or CONTROL+PAGE DOWN to a control? I tried to sent it as TEXT TYPE <CONTROL><TAB> but that seams to just type CONTROL and then type TAB. Need to be able to tap TAB while CONTROL is held down. Thanks If there is absolutely no way of sending a CONTROL+TAB to a control, is there anyway of TYPE TYPE "CONTROL+TAB" to the forground window instead?

I believe the two requirements of yours that I have quoted are mutually exclusive. In general, the TEXT TYPE command operates on the foreground window, i.e. the one with the focus, so I can't see how you could achieve what you want. I thought that at first but there is an option in the TEXT TYPE called "Send text to Control" then you select the control variable.
