Combo box to list an ascii database?

I have an ascii text file, semicolon delimited, that I would like to choose from with a Dialog ComboBox. But I am having trouble populating the box. Obviously it is impossible to type hundreds of lines, four columns per record. But I can make smaller lists on the fly. But I still need to get the sma...

Web Recorder syntax help

I am trying to get familiar with latest version of Web Recorder 1.6.4. I am looking at some sample scripts, and having problems to get them to run in Macro Scheduler 13. I have WR installed, but not turned on when I am single stepping through my script. Where do I get help on the syntax for commands...

Thanks Bob. That worked much better. But now sometimes I have scroll bars with a short message. How can I stop that?

Need scroll bars in Dialog Edit object

I have been checking the properties for the Edit object, but cannot seem to get scroll bars. I have a 100+ line file in the Text box, and want to be able to scroll through the content. The object has been set to ReadOnly, I can place the mouse cursor in the field and use the right arrow to scroll ac...

Does it make sense? YES, of course it does.

Does it make sense that I did that? NO, NO, NO.

Thanks JRL for pointing out the obvious.

Dialog checkboxes do not reset

I have a dialog box with five checkboxes. First run, the routine works OK with selected boxes. Second and subsequent runs seem to keep the values from the earlier choices. The visible dialog is not reset, it shows the previous choices. So I added 5 SetDialogProperty lines at end of SRT to reset all ...

Thanks. For sure that's not in the manuals anywhere, that is only experience talking. Solved it for me. So it had nothing to do with imbedding a While loop, it had to do with a specific variable match. It's a good thing I used the actual While value vs. a sample one, but then that probably would not...

Thanks again. I tried the Help section Index on Button with no luck. I tried "object" with no luck. Then I switched from the Index and did a Search for Button Object, and got Button Object Properties. I was able to change the BrowseStyle on the Button to search for a folder vs. a file, exactly what ...

OK, thanks. You may have made a minor error there, but you provided another teaching moment. Apparently, if you escape a character incorrectly, it doesn't affect the result, so....if in doubt, escape it anyway :wink:

Repeat loop has trouble with imbedded While loop

I have a long Repeat...Until loop that was failing. Kept getting a message on the Until line that the Repeat variable could not be found. It took some time to isolate the problem, but I have been able to make a model that duplicates the problem. Let>vSkip=False Let>vTemp=XX Let>k=0 Repeat>k Let>k=k+...

Install an EXE imbedded in a compiled script

I seem to recall the ability to include another file in a compiled script. When the script is run, it checks to see if the other file is installed, if not, it then extracts the file from the script and installs it. I have searched the forum for an example of this, but cannot find anything similar. I...

Thanks, that worked perfect for the File Browse. Where can I find that information? I could not find it in the Help files. Is there an option to Browse for the Path vs. the Filename? I guess it is possible to browse to any file in that folder and then parse out the path, but what if there is no file...

Fixed - RegEx multi line syntax

No need to submit file. Your solution worked perfectly. The final problem was me, leaving out a "insignificant" line of code (dummy, ME). When I tried your code I did not include the MessageModal line. I was just looking at the results in the WatchList. I did not see spaces after the numbers 3,4 so ...

Thanks Marcus. I get the same results as you with your test file, but my real file removes the text from the line, but leaves the \n there. Actually my results showed two blank lines. So, I removed the \n in your ReplaceText parameter and used nothing, like my original, so now I only have one blank ...
