Start Debugger in a Different Window

[cardena]

 

This window appears when I run a macro.  What is the best option to choose?  Is it asking me for a text editor?

First off you might be confused about something. You are running the macro in debug from the Scripting window. One only does this when testing or debugging a macro. Normally one runs a macro with all the MEP windows invisible with an activation like a keyboard shortcut. 

If you are intentionally debugging, that depends on the scope of your macro, window activations, and more things. Please tell me if you are trying to run normally or debug before I spend time explaining something unnecessarily.

When you activate a macro the window where the macro runs already has focus (is active). However, when you are debugging a macro Macro Express has focus. When debugging a macro, Macro Express does not know which window to work with so it asks which window the macro should run in.

 

Choose the name of the window where you want the macro to run.
