Unable to locate script compiler - not trying to make an EXE

Post by mribbons » Mon Nov 01, 2004 11:24 pm

Hi,
We're currently evaluating Macro Scheduler for use in software testing. But when it's left over night with the program the next morning it always shows the message Unable to locate script compiler. The script compiler ships with macro compiler pro etc etc...

I've watched the script carefully and it doesn't seem to go back to macro scheduler and attempt to compile an exe.

Has anyone seen this behaviour before?

Help is appreciated.

Regards
M Ribbons

Post the script. A keystroke in the script is undoubtedly landing on Macro Scheduler. The only way this message pops up is if the user selects one of the options to compile the script (toolbar, menu or in the editor). Your script is doing this.

A combination of ALT-T,E will try to compile a script if focus is in the Macro Scheduler Main Panel. Is it possible that is happening and focus is not in the correct window?

As noted by Support, sample of script will be best tool to look at for cause of trouble.
Hope this was helpful..................good luck,
