ph82 Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 My macro need to save the file before repet operation with the next one; must I insert a security delay time for the recording (few seconds) or does the macro automatically wait for ? thank you.

Nicolas Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 I suppose it depends on how you save this file ... if you use a ME command (such as copy file, rename file or variable modify string / append to file) i think you don't need any extra delay time because it will be handled by the command itself but if you use the "save" or "save as" dialog box of any external application, ME cannot do anything for you ! here it may be better to wait a few seconds before the next step Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 If you know the path and name of the file that you are saving to, you could use the "Wait for File Ready" command. When the application is done writing to the file, the file should become 'ready'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
