#Access! macros
9 messages in this thread
Steve,
I'll try that. I have my password on macro key 20 (Shift-F10) another macro
refers to the password macro key and bombs every time. i.e. I get an Invalid
logon message (LOGINE). If I then hit Shift F10 the system accepts the macro.
I've tried adding a delay, thinking it was sending before the system was
ready – but – no better. I'll try the ^m. No mention of it in the docs I
have.
Thanks,
Rich
I haven't tried having it called by another macro. That could be causing the
problem. I'm sure Keith will give us the definitive answer after he returns
from DevCon.

I was having the same problem. The trouble was in my wait string
(\P"password:"\w\m3 when I removed the colon from the word password
(\P"password"\w\m3) it works fine. Note m3 (f3) is where I storied my
password. I hope this helps.

Hayward,
Thanks. You're absolutely right. Removing the ":" after the word "Password:"
fixed the problem. The entire macro string now works. Logs me on all the way
to Amigaforum. I wonder why removing the colon works? I left colons after id:
and name: (Host Name:) earlier in the macro string and they cause no problem.
The confusing thing was that although the system wouldn't recognize my
password (stored on macro key 20) when it was given in the macro sequence,
sending the password by striking macro key 20 worked just fine.

Yes, the problem only seems with waiting for "Password:" then calling a macro
key. Glad I could be of help.
