bodajmac Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 hi all, not sure if this is possible - have tried searching the forum and helpfiles without quite finding what i'm looking for. the situation is this - interacting with an application, my macro asks the user for a numeric code which it then uses to perform a further operation, and this all works fine. however, what i'd really like to do is take the number input by the user, then search for it in a text file, retrieve the text string equivalent of the number and then display that in a confirm dialog. i've got as far as experimenting with the Text File Begin Process command but haven't got much further than that - anyone got any ideas? thanks very much in advance for any help, andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodajmac Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 hmm, really should have waited before posting - knowing to use 'lookup' as my search term could have saved us all the trouble! anyway, for anyone who's interested, the following thread has got some very useful stuff http://pgmacros.com/community/index.php?sh...st=0entry2490 clever stuff!
