Weekly Forum Round-up

Filed under: Automation,General,Scripting,Testing — Marcus Tettmar @ 10:34 am

I thought I might start a weekly round up of some of the Macro Scheduler forum posts that caught my eye during the week. Not everyone gets a chance to browse the forums all the time, so it might help to link to some here. Then those that subscribe to the blog via RSS/Email will see them and they’ll also show up in Macro Scheduler’s News Feed window.

The forums are quite active but I won’t link to every little discussion or request for support – just those that demonstrate a new feature, or work as a “how to” or anything else that I think could be useful. We’ll see how it goes.

So here’s my list for week ending 21st May 2010:

How to trim spaces from the ends of, or within, a string

A Progress Bar Demo using Macro Scheduler 12

How to make a custom dialog minimize to the task bar

Putting a status bar with multiple panels on a custom dialog

Finding a drive based on its label (volume name)

Getting the HTML source of a page using WebRecorder

Running Automated Testing scripts in the background via VMWare
