Automate with Scheduled Task

Post by Quirin »

Sorry, am new with textpad .... :?
It's possible to automate Textpad from scheduled tasks?
(Incl. macros from the command line, eg. "c:\program file\textpad 5\textpad.exe" -macro=macroname.nnn)
->the macro open a file, manipulate it, and save the file with a different name

It is not possible to do that currently with TextPad.

But you can do that with another program like Macro Scheduler that I use daily to automatically, pn a schedule, open TextPad, run macros, close TextPad, and continue with other tasks.

Info available at: http://www.mjtnet.com/macro_scheduler.htm
Hope this was helpful.............good luck,
Bob
