UIClick not working

Hi Apologies if this is an obvious one. I am automating a transaction in Sage Accounts. First step is to click on a menu item to bring up the relevant sub-menu. I identified the relevant element using the Findobject wizard and set it to click the element. It inserted the code: SetFocus>Sage 50 Accou...

Re: Trying to capture xml returned from POST

Hmmm... I tried that before I posted, and the IEGetAllText didn't seem to work either. That was what I'd first supposed. I was also sure I had the right screen/instance of IE, but I'll have another try when I get some free time in case I made some error. In the end, I got round it by calling the web...

Re: Other browsers support?

Thanks Marcus, I understand all that... and use MS whenever I'm in the IE world. I guess from your reply that the Chrome world is not going to be supported any time soon. Unfortunately I'm at the mercy of clients who refuse to use IE (sometime because of prejudice, sometimes for technical reasons wi...

Other browsers support?

With the gradual decline? of IE and the advent of Sway, is there any view as to supporting other browsers than IE?

I have a couple of projects where the only acceptable browser is Chrome (Due to incompatibility of other applications with IE) and cant use Macro Scheduler because of it.

Re: Advice on using Create EXE from command line

Aah..
Works perfectly now... didn't think to concatenate the parameters like that, but it makes sense once explained.

Re: Using non-Modal dialog in subroutine

Thanks... that's pretty much the conclusion I had come to... Just wanted an opinion from someone who's been using Macro scheduler for more than a few days.

Thanks again.

Using non-Modal dialog in subroutine

Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, but I've trawled the boards and can't find the answer. I have a small non-modal dialog that I would normally call from a subroutine (for MA read Macro>). I can make this work well if it is in a main script OR by using an include file in the main script. (whic...
