How will you check to make sure its not a second copy of the first word that may have been removed? Need some typt of time monitor. Suppose there are now multiple copies of the word, do you need to monitor that? What if the word is in a different position because other words have been added or delet...

Can't explain why it doesn't work as written, but here is a multi-line temp solution:

Code: Select all

Let>SQL=select count(PTPCODE), PTNOTE from D13PTRN WHERE ((PTPCODE LIKE 'FIC%') and (PTDATE = 
Let>SQL=%SQL%{%the_date%
Let>SQL=%SQL%})) GROUP BY PTNOTE

If I recall correctly, AutoLogin was dropped because of some unreliability with the Windows Services. Working one day, and failing the next time.

You could also use a MidStr command based on the longer positions and LTrim the result Let>string1=-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1001 1287419 May 14 16:12 A02_05_14_2012_1FIRST_1_K0_HN.pdf Let>string2=-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1001 979252 May 14 15:15 A03_05_14_2012_1FIRST_1_K0_HN.pdf Let>string3=-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1001...

If you have created a handler for the checkbox, OnClick, that may be part of the problem. It turns out that any change in the status of Checked property will trigger the OnClick routine. So, it you change the property by clicking with a mouse, pressing a space bar, or using SetProperty command, the ...

In the Editor, use the Menu Bar/Tools/Import Binary File That will import your file at the bottom, and assign it a label. Now you can use that label(drop the ":") in ExportData command.

I have used and compared all three products. I am an independant consultant with no ties to any vendors. I don't recall the details, but I finally selected Macro Scheduler as my tool of choice and never looked back. One of the main advantages is the easier commands and syntax. Most of my users can n...

I don't know the game, but would suggest moving SetFocus inside the loop, just before the Press commands and mouse actions.

Hi Armsys. I was alerted to this item and was asked to consider providing some input. I am still distracted right now, and will probably disappear again once we have this item fixed. If my memory is correct, I believe you also took a long leave of absence some years ago. Glad to see you are still he...

I found the java script I had remembered, and did get to try it out. I don't recall where I got it from (RexCopy ?), but the original author's name is included in my script. Seems to be working, but it does come up with a message that XXCOPY is not running even though the window is open. When I clos...

In case you still have the problem. It looks like the /WV0 switch in the help sections was deprecated, but not removed from the Help. But I think I have a small java script that can be run before XXCOPY to send the key into the XXCOPY program. I found it in my old XXCOPY notes folder. I had used it ...

I was wrong, "/YY" is not correct.

But "/WV0" is supposed to suppress warning about wrong OS. That is a number zero at the end, not the letter O.

Sorry about that, hope this helps.

I have been using XXCOPY for many years. I think armsys is correct. I can't check now, but I believe the correct switch is "/YY" to kill window prompts. If this does not work, I will check to see if I have an older version that I can use to try to duplicate the problem. Even if this does work, I am ...
