Variable Set String using the option "set value to topmost window title"

You can give a full pathname when saving a file, no need to change the current folder. For instance, if a "save" dialog box is open and cursor is in the "filename" edit box, you can use : Text Type: A:\myfile.doc<ENTER>

eeeeh ... i did not know this "Append to Text File" command, seems great i'll test it and tell you in a couple of days if it still freezes thanks !

hi everybody and thanks for this forum !! much more user-friendly than the newsgroups I have a set of more than 700 macros and one of them is dedicated to logging informations into a log file : Log Errors Date/Time: Save "dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm" into %T97% Clipboard Empty Clipboard Start Copy Text Type: %T97% | %T98% %T99% Clipboard End Copy Clipboard Append Text: "log.txt" Variable Set String %T99% "" the idea is : %T98% is the name of a macro, initialized when launching this macro %T99% is a message I want to log so everytime I want to write a message in my log file, I simply use : Variable Set String %T99% "hello world" Macro Run: LOG the problem is : sometimes (and of course I don't know why) this macro freezes ... in the icons tray, i can see in the tooltip displayed on the ME icon that this macro "LOG" is running, but it never comes back to the calling macro I don't know exactly where it freezes in the macro code, and when it happens I can't stop ME anymore (using the abort macro hotkey as usual) : I have to reboot and then my macro will work fine .. again ... until the next time if you have any idea, it would be of great help as this macro is called a lot of times every day and night ... thanks (and sorry for my english )
