.scp Files Transfer

Post by Armstrong » Tue Dec 10, 2002 12:24 am

What's the simple proper procedure to transfer .scp files from one computer to another? Copying .scp directly to the Macro Scheduler directory won't automatically make known to Macor Scheduler.

Thanks.

Open MS, then select create a new macro from the File menu or from the icon on the menu bar.
When the Macro window opens you will note the import button which you need to click. Then you can find the script file you wish to bring into MS and you're done.

Of course, you only really need to pull the script into Macro Scheduler if you want to use Macro Scheduler’s scheduling features, or assign hotkeys etc.

Using the file associations made on install you can run and edit the .scp file without importing it into Macro Scheduler.

The EXACT situation I encounter is: after copying several .scp files into Macro Scheduler subdirectory, the newly copied .scp files won't be automatically displayed in Macro Scheduler main program. Of course, it won't. The question here is how to make these newly copies .scp files to be displayed on the main program and be assigned a macro name.

Thanks for your enlightenment.

As per pzelenka's answer - for each macro do File/New Macro and hit the Import button to locate the .scp file.
