SlopsTV Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Is this possible? I have a separate piece of software that can dump the text into a .txt file. I'm looking for a way for Macro Express to interpret this. I've looked at text file process but I'm struggling to understand it, or if it's the thing I need. Many thanks.

Cory Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 You can activate a macro by a file coming into existence or changing. Then read all of the file into a variable and see if the text you want exists. Text file process is for a line-by-line process. It doesn't sound like that's what you need. BTW you can also trigger by processes. That might be easier than monitoring the file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
