Which macro is running?

Post by KWiz » Sat Mar 01, 2008 2:04 am

I just booted up my computer, and I see that a macro is running. How do I find out which one is running? I didn't think I had any scheduled macros at this time...??

I also thought that running macros showed up in the status bar at the bottom of macroscheduler, but I don't see anything there except the name of the group (and the time).

Thanks,
Kwiz

I believe macros only show up in the status bar if they were initiated from within the Macro Scheduler menu, either as a scheduled macro or by a user action. If a script file is double clicked from Windows explorer it will run. In that case the name should be visible in the list presented when you press and hold Alt+tab... keep pressing tab until the running macro is highlighted and its name should be visible. (I can only test this in winXP)

Hope this is helpful
