paul Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I have a macro that simply displays a text box. It is triggered via a hotkey ALt-X (when released). If I press and release Alt-X, it runs. Before dismissing the text box, I press and release ALt-X again - as expected, the macro does not run again, because it's already running. Now I close the text box, and the macro stops running. All is well. But wait... I now press and hold down Alt-X. While I am holding these keys down, nothing happens. But as soon as I release them, multiple textboxes appear, and multiple icons in my taskbar, indicating the macro is running many times all at the same time. I must close each textbox separately until no more macros are running (I got 40 to run). This is presumably a bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acantor Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Wow! It works... I mean, it doesn't work. I recreated your macro, held down Alt + X for less than a second, and saw a dozen or more instances of the dialog appear. Then MEP crashed. You should definitely report this bug!
