Version 4.7.3
In this post of mine of some time ago I stated that some of my replacement macros didn't work as planned, and that I didn't know "why".

But believe it or not, something even weirder happened to me.
Did you know that macros "work better if they're "re-recorded""?
I didn't, up to now.
Well, the fact is that if I follow these steps, my macro works 100% (although with an annoying behaviour):
1) I click on Record new macro
2) I play my old, not working, macro
3) Annoying behavior: the macro runs, but every time it DOES NOT find something it's looking for, a prompt appears, telling me that it hasn't found a certaing string.
4) I press Enter, and I keep it pressed, thus automatically "accepting" all the times the macro doesn't find something.
5) The macro ends, and it works 100%, till the very last step recorded!
6) The only annoying thing is that by keeping Enter pressed, I have to remove the additional newlines I accidentally enter after the Macro "ends"
Now, is some Textpad expert among you able to understand what's going on here? Can this be explained?
An interesting enigma for all the TextPad gurus out there.
