script starts to run but script opens each time

Hi,

I wrote a script and when I try to run it, I notice the script opens up each time and am having difficulty running the script. Everytime I leave the script open using the edito and then click the run button it works fine. But if I close the script and then run from the small macro window main (Macro Scheduler 11) window that shows a list of all the macros that you have? when I run script from there, the entire script opens up

Pls help

Can you post your script?

It's impossible to know exactly what's going without seeing the script.

This is a shot in the dark but I have a suspicion that your script is sending key strokes like press enter or CTRL+M. If that's the case, make sure the macro scheduler interface is NOT in focus because pressing enter or CTRL+M while the macro scheduler interface is in focus will always open the selected script.

Hello,

I think the cntrl M and focus is the problem. I tried to deselect "refocus window " my script and saved the script and it still fails. I have written several scripts and it is too long for me to paste it here, pls help as I am unable to run it as it keeps going back to the window.

Pls let me know how to remove all the enter's in the script? The script was always written when "refocus window" option was selected by default. I was not aware of this.

Hello,
I tried to deselect "refocus window" in script and saved the script and when I open it again, I notice the "refocu window" is selected by default.

How do I get rid of this?

Thanks a ton in advance for the help.

If you recorded the script, then it simply put in commands to mimick what you did -- and this is usually not a problem. What might be a problem however is if you edited the script, and took out some steps or added new ones that are contributing to your problem.

I think you need to cut/paste your script here on the forum so we can take a look at it and find the problem.
