Hi all,

I have a few scheduled macros. Whenever I drag (for example) a document that I
want to put into another folder and one of the scheduled macros starts to run
the drag-process is interrupted and often the file drops into the wrong folder.
This happens not so often but it is still annoying. I have tried to run the macros
in seperate processes and that seems to work (no drag error) but that does slow down
the macro execution (lot of commands in these macros) an in the meantime you can´t start #
another macro (e.g. text replacement).

Is there a solution for this?

Thanks
Ben

Hi all,

got a solution for this:

1. Try "run macro in sep. process" - should work

2. If 1. causes problems try:

<cmds>
<if_key>("<mlbd>","DOWN")
<waitfor>("MOUSE","RELEASE","<mlbu>",20,0)
<endif>

<put rest of macro here>

That works fine for me!
