System Error Code 87

I've started having all my macros fail each night with the only feedback that I can see being a macro scheduler error code that says system error code 87.

Any Ideas?

Windows error code 87 means: "The parameter is incorrect."

At what point do you get this error? Do you have logging enabled for these scripts?

Yes, Logging is enabled.

I have 3-4 macros running nightly, but I'm not sure which one is failing with the parameter error. I think their might have been a problem with my installed software as it wasn't allowing me to pull up the built in help at all. I'm uninstalling and reinstalling the software. I will post again if that doesn't fix it.

P.S. Thanks for your response.

Logging is enabled, so what does the log indicate to you? The cause is most likely right there in the log file. Using the log to isolate the area, you can then single step through the script(s) and check the values in the Watch List.

Do error messages post to the log files?

I'd never noticed that my log files have just stopped when a problem has occured.
