Macro wont repeat simple problem I'm sure

Post by Guest » Thu Jan 08, 2004 2:21 am

I made a simple marcro that when a conformation window pops up the macro presses "Y"

The problem is sometimes the program will pop up a second time with another pop up window, same title, but the macro wont send a second "Y". it happends to fast for me to see.

All I can say is I know it always works on the first window, but never the second one.

I also did a test were the second window pops up by itself and the macro works fine.

The macro will just run once and quit, unless on a timer that periodically repeats or if it has been programmed to loop. Hard to tell without seeing what triggers the macro and how it terminates.

Maybe provide a copy of the script so we can help?
Hope this was helpful..................good luck,
