BIG BUCKS!!

I have written a series of HUGE macros, and in reviewing the code, I found a number of places where I had given the same name to two different Labels. (It took me several hours to find all of these.) Many of these errors had been in my code for a number of years. It is to be hoped that jumps to thes...

I forgot to mention that I am running Macro Scheduler version 9 in Windows 7. My version of Excel is version 10. My collection of macros is fairly large. I used a search program to count the number of SetFocus's in my macro collection: 2100! May you all have a most blessed day. Sincerely, Michael D ...

Sending text to Notepad requires two SetFocus instructions

Greetings! I have a strange problem. I wrote the below macro to send those names I select on an Excel Spreadsheet to Notepad. The macro works perfectly as long as I use two "SetFocus>Untitled - Notepad" instructions in a row when I need for the focus to be on Notepad so that text can be written to i...

Hi Marcus:
Thanks! I think you meant:

"or

If>SheetMarketCap>{400*%ComptdMarketCap} " (*; not &)

Also, perhaps for the next update of the manual, it could be explained under what circumstances a complex expression must be used in an IF statement. May you have a blessed day.

If statement problematic if it contains a multiply

I just made an interesting discovery (after about an hour of hard debugging). Macro Scheduler completely ignores the following statement, and gives no error message indicating that it has done so: If>SheetMarketCap>400.0*ComptdMarketCap where ComptdMarketCap is a variable. Therefore one must write: ...

Redesigning to eliminate need to identify unprintable chars

Greetings JRL: Thanks for your kind help. I took a careful look at the design of my macro, and decided to revise it completely. Consequently the program no longer has a need for identifying unprintable characters. But I will keep your response for future reference. It may be very useful to my progra...

Determining which ASCII char was picked up from the web

Greetings! I picked up some nonprintable ASCII characters from the Internet. For example, one of them is enclosed within the following double quotes: "  ". How would I go about determining which ASCII character this is? I would like to give this char a name, such as Let>SpChar= Thanks for your help.
