Re: Win10 Keyboard has new key "fn" to activate Fn keys

Thank you for your information. I verified that my macros with Pressing function keys work normally. However, the suggestion for locking the fn key function for "Normal" operation [ fn-lock function: Fn + Shift (first press fn, then shift)] did not appear to work. Looking at your references, I tried...

Win10 Keyboard has new key "fn" to activate Fn keys

I just received a new HP Computer with Windows 10. It came with a keyboard that has dual actions for the normal function keys. Unfortunately the default action is to execute some Windows 10 function. In order to press the normal "F12" key you have to hold down the "fn" key. There is no "fn" key in t...

Thanks JRL. In the back of my mind I thought the variable name could be a problem. The code I posted was a paraphrase of a portion of a much larger application which was written many releases ago. I had to make a few changes and used the Dialog Designer and Presto the Dialog took on a whole new look...

Dialog Edit box returning NO_SUCH_PROPERTY

I have a test dialog with an EditBox and two buttons. The EditBox Text is initialized. If I click the Ok button and Get the Text Property, the result is ok. If I modify the contents of the Edit Box, I get the NO_SUCH_PROPERTY result for the Text Property. I am at a loss as to why. The code follows: ...

Sounds like a good suggestion.

I was hoping that there was some way to capture the error message or error code so I could report it.

Thanks.

DeleteFolder and DeleteFile Results

I have a macro where I am deleting certain files and folders. I have run into a problem when the file/folder cannot be deleted due to being protected or in use. How can I determine if the operation was successful, or if not, how do I determine why?.

Marcus thanks for answering my questions. I do run my never ending macro from the command line. Actually, I use the shortcut to the macro that Msched created. One more Question if I may. When the Run Immediate Anyway is selected in the Advanced Run When options, what order do the macros run? Is it i...

Thanks for posting JPuziano and Bnc1. It's interesting that I have the same disappearing Systray icons problem. I had come across a fix in Kelly's Corner. However, it was a temporary fix for the current boot. In subsequent boots, the problem returned. In my case it was independent of Msched versions...

Operation difference between Version 10 and Version 11

First a little background. I am running XP home SP3. I have a number of Macro Scheduler macros that I use. Some run on start up others by Hot Key or time of day. I wrote a new never ending macro which presents a dialog; processes the input and redisplays the dialog. While I was running Version 10, I...

Size of Message window

Having moved to 7.15 from 6.x, I notice that the message window is displayed with scroll bars. I was told to use ResizeWindow. This does put the scrollbars to the top left of the window so that I can see the message, but no matter what size I try, there are still scroll bars shown which must be mani...
