joe Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 A macro can be set to automatically fire when a particular window gains focus. If your USB drive launches a window when you plug it in, then you should be able to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossco Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
