redwards Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I installed the trial version (no problem). Then copied my main macro file to the new folder. Then opened it and it converted fine.

Cory Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Do you think you could break these problems into individual posts? It would make it a lot more easy to address. No Items in Start Menu: I too saw that once in Beta. But if you need to reboot, you need to reboot. You shouldn't try running it without. Macros not running in IE7: I have tons of macros that run in IE7 and they work perfectly Can you be more specific and give some examples? Type Text Speed: I noticed this too, MEP seems to be able to type faster and a few applications seem to be sensitive to this. EG JavaScript applets. But you don't need to add a speed command before each type command. You can increase the delay in the program Preferences or you can add one keystroke speed at the beginning of your macro once. Window Reposition in IE7: Works just fine for me. Please be more explicit. Break: It always worked in Vista for me. Repeat with folder order: I don't' understand your problem or your example. Are you saying it is processing things in a different order? Your example shows a different set of files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwards Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I received an email last week stating the problem with IE7 was something to do with IE7's protected mode. I received another email today (01-09-2009) stating: 'Issue submitted by you has been resolved. The change will be available with the next release of Macro Express Pro' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrypin Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I installed the trial version (no problem). Then copied my main macro file to the new folder. Then opened it and it converted fine. Below are the problems I've had +++++++++++++++++++++ ------------------------ 12-30-2008 ------------------------ * No macros working with IE v7 window I use Firefox and occasionally IE6, but from your later post it sounds like this is an ME Pro bug that's now acknowledged and fixed. ------------------------ 12-29-2008 ------------------------ * No Item in Start Menu after Install - After a reboot, it showed up I had same problem immediately after installation, but it's been fine ever since. * Type Text - Had to add a Keyboard Speed command just prior to all Type Text commands In addition to the points Cory made, see also my suggestions in Post #7 of this thread * Window Reposition not working for Vista Windows Internet Explorer v7 - Tryed a different HotKey command - This works using Macro Express v3.7.4.1 - Works with all other apps windows I'm using XP Pro (and Firefox) but I did have some odd resizing/repositioning problems in ME 3 a while ago, as per this thread. * Repeat With Folder - Listing not pre-sorted (see below) [Not a big deal] Not sure I follow that one. Are you saying those are the respective results using the identical folder with identical contents? * Break Command Working (see below) - Was not working in version v.3.x on Vista -------------------------- Macro Express v3.7.4.1 -------------------------- Start Var N1=0 End Var N2=6 1 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Abrisoft - DemoCop.url 2 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Access\aadconsulting.com - Microsoft Access Add-Ins.url 3 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Access\Access Monster.url 4 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Access\Access Tips.url 5 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Access\Code Samples.url 6 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Access\CodeCharge - Code Generation tools for ASP, JSP, PHP, Perl.url ---> BREAK 7 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\AIM Express Sign In.url ---> BREAK -------------------------- Macro Express Pro v4.0.0.1 -------------------------- Start Var N1=0 End Var N2=6 1 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Abrisoft - DemoCop.url 2 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\AIM Express Sign In.url 3 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Ashsoft - Decompiler.url 4 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\desktop.ini 5 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\Download details Office SharePoint Server 2007 VHD.url 6 - C:\Users\re7591\Favorites\LogMeIn.url ---> BREAK As Cory said, it's usually better to post each topic separately unless they are clearly related. And it can help if you provide actual code (copied from Direct Editor) wherever possible, plus details of activation and scope. -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwards Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 I was woundering if the problem w/ IE7 or greater (I've downloaded IE8 beta on another PC) has been fixed. I download the new MacroExpress Pro to see if it works but I'm past the 30 day limit an don't want to spend the $ if this problem is not better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 The release notes for version 4.0.1.1 say: 36. Fixed a bug where hotkey macros would not activate in Internet Explorer 7 on Vista when protected internet mode was turned on. Contact Insight Software Solutions directly to request an extension of the 30-day trial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
