I'm trying to help a friend convert over 200 Prowrite 3.2 docs into ASCII. I wrote some simple macros but they are not working correctly. Here is a sample of one: /* comment line */ CLOSE SETPATH 'DOCS:' OPEN SETPATH 'TEMP:' SAVE AS (tried SAVEAS too) CLOSE I then repeat this several times in the macro. The SAVE AS requestor never opens! (actually, the SAVE AS requestor does open if I open an ascii file instead of a Prowrite document!) I can live with clicking on the ASCII TEXT gadget (it would be nice if the macro language would allow me to automate that…I understand 3.3 does?) So, how can I get this simple macro to work??? thanks!
