  2. Hi, I am trying to do a similar thing, renaming files autmatically after I have exported them out of a program, but can't seem to get my head around how to do it.... I use the Repeat with folder command, select the folder, then select Files Only and Filename Only and Place name in T1 then add a Variable Modify Integer command selecting Increment, variable to Increment N1 Then Repeat End That's it and nothing aside from the export of the file and the save as command comes up but no number automatically input... I can't seem to see the wood for the trees in this one...can someone please help me out? cheers and regards Rossco
  3. Thanks Kevin, will try those options.... using XPPro SP2 on both Laptop and PC Cheers Rossco
  4. Hi there, I have some macros that work great on the PC but fail on my laptop...I will explain as follows... I have a macro that moves mouse to tray icon, then Right clicks that icon, moves the mouse again to an area of the menu that comes up from right clicking the icon, then it needs to perform a Left click. This works great on my PC (running XP Pro SP2) and only partly works on my Laptop (also running XP Pro SP2)....when it comes to the Left click, it doesn't happen. I have redone the macro to have left button down then up, still does not work, and I have tried using keyboard text type command to hit the Enter key which also works fine on my PC, but not my laptop.... ...is there something about the left click on laptops that is different to PC's (which I know sounds like a really dumb question)?.... The Laptop is a Toshiba Satellite 17" Widescreen model. Cheers Rossco
  5. Absolutely brilliant, I was not thinking outside the square...or should that be outside the realms of 1 macro....thanks kevin, very much appreciated... That feature request would be a great help in situations like this... cheers Rossco
  6. Hi there, I have been trying to figure out how I can use the "Move to Tray Icon" for the same icon but for 2 different names/titles...as follows. I want to move the tray icon to the Zone Alarm icon, which I can do, however when there is no network activity, the icon name is "ZoneAlarm Security Suite" but if there is network traffic, the icon name is just "Traffic" I have tried figuring out some if/else statements but can't seem to work around this issue.... ....Is there a way I can tell the macro that if the icon reads as "Traffic or ZoneAlarm Security Suite" to still execute etc....? I have tried using partial match and adding the word "Traffic" to the words, but still no go.. cheers & Regards Rossco
  7. Hi Joe, thanks for the reply. It doesn't launch a window, but it does create that icon in the system tray that says "Safely Remove Hardware".. In the meantime, I have done a work around for "If Folder Exists" and that folder being the drive letter of the usb drive when it is plugged in. Plus I have given it a complex pause, so if the folder does not exist, then the macro stops/aborts. Lengthy work around, but it seems to work. cheers Rossco
  8. Hi there, I am wondering whether it is possible to create a macro that starts when I plug in my USB drive? cheers and thanks in advance Rossco
