Can't get Macro Scheduler's help example to work!

I am at my wit's end and any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been trying to work my way through the example in Macro Scheduler's help section --- The section labeled: Scripting Windows for Beginners.

The first section where you open notepad and send a few lines of text to the open notepad window works okay. But when I can't seem to get the next section to work. (This consists of saving the notepad file)

When I run the macro, the three lines of text print out okay on screen, but then I end up with the Save As Window open. Instead of the file name I specified, though, the file name in the dialogue box is *.txt. At this point the macro seems to stall. Also, just before the Save As window appears something, (another window?), seems to flash on and off very quickly --- too quickly to identify.

From reading some of the other posts, I thought that maybe this was a timing problem of some sort, and I've tried using the WaitWindowOpen --SetFocus -- WaitReady sequence, the SK_DELAY variable and Wait command, but to no avail.

I'm working on a Compaq Presario 2100 notebook running at about 1.4 GHZ. Thanks, in advance, for your help!

Can you please provide entire script that you are using? Will save us from having to reproduce from multip page tutorial, and will also allow us to use the exact same spelling, spaces, etc. that you have created.

Also be sure that you have used same case letters as examples.
