There is a variable to control logging, _WRITE_LOG_FILE, that can be set to 1 or 0 in order to control whether logging is on or off, and I use that variable often. In this case though the resulting log file is so large because the same loop is logged over and over, that I was not finding helpful data.
Last night it occurred to me. I need a way to manually toggle logging on and off. The following script does that. The first script is a sample script that will demonstrate how this works. The second script is the bare minimum lines needed to be placed at the start of a script to have the ability to toggle logging on and off using the WinKey + F4 key combination.
Code: Select all
//To turn on logging at the beginning of your
//script remark or remove the following line.
Let>_WRITE_LOG_FILE=0
//Set this variable flag to 0 if you are starting
//with logging off or to 1 if you are starting
//with logging on
Let>WriteLogFlag=0
//Key press to toggle logging. In this case WinKey+F4
//VK115=F4
//Modifier 8=winkey
OnEvent>Key_Down,VK115,8,ResetWriteLog
//Key press to end the script. WinKey+Esc
//VK27=Esc
//Modifier 8=winkey
OnEvent>Key_Down,VK27,8,Quit
SRT>ResetWriteLog
If>WriteLogFlag=1
Let>WriteLogFlag=0
SetControlText>Macro Scheduler Message,TMemo,1,logging is off
Else
Let>WriteLogFlag=1
SetControlText>Macro Scheduler Message,TMemo,1,logging is on
EndIf
Wait>1
//CloseWindow>Macro Scheduler Message
Let>_WRITE_LOG_FILE=%WriteLogFlag%
END>ResetWriteLog
SRT>Quit
Exit>0
END>Quit
Let>kk=0
//Open a message box if you want to see the messages.
