Great idea for a new function! The system variable WW_TIMEOUT can be used to set the number of seconds after which this command should timeout. If set to zero (the default) the timeout will not occur and the command will continue indefinitely. If WW_TIMEOUT is used, WW_RESULT will indicate whether o...

Hi JRL, I use SQLtoCSV a lot as well and I think being able to append instead of re-writing the entire file will come in handy... should be some speed advantages, for huge files at least. You know, there was a time when I was going to ask Marcus for SQLtoCSV and SQLtoHTML to be made into native Macr...

What is Version History for MS 14.0.18

Hi Marcus, I just downloaded the latest 14.0.18 version of Macro Scheduler however... - The version history page http://www.mjtnet.com/mswhatsnew.htm does not have an entry for 14.0.18 (or 14.0.17) Version 14.0.16 27/09/2013 - Removed diagnostic messages from text capture funtions left into 14.0.14 ...

Hi Ghost24de, Here is some early feedback on what "may be" happening there and an idea on how you could convert 0.916666666666667 back to 22:00:00 I notice that... 22/24 = 0.91666666666666666666666666666667 So... 1/24 = 1 hour = 0.041666666666666666666666666666667 - in a loop, count how many times y...

This one was so easy... Then why did it take two days for a response? I responded when I saw it... I'll have to get back to reading the forums daily.

Hi JRL, This one was so easy, it makes me wonder if its a trick question. It doesn't work because you omitted the slash \ after %script_dir% Just add the slash \ as shown below and it works fine...

Hi JRL, I agree. This little check could be written into a handy subroutine to provide the equivalent of an IfFileAccessible> function. Ideally, you would run the subroutine and not have to worry about what the system variable WLN_NOCRLF was set to... what I mean is... running the subroutine should ...

I would vote YES for jpuziano 's suggestions regarding warning about duplicate names of Subroutines, Labels and Variables. Thanks for reading! :) Thanks for your support Grovkillen.
