kevin Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 is there a way to run the macro while i am working on the same desktop without interfering Not exactly. Windows only allows input from the keyboard or mouse to one window at a time. But you can create a virtual session and run Macro Express that way. Using some virtual software, it continues to run when the session is minimized. Most virtualization software clients are free. Check out VMWare, Microsoft's Virtual PC, and Sun's VirtualBox.
