Using Macro to automate find

Post by Mike »

Can you make a macro find more then one value like Error, and Warning without geting the pop up search window?

Also, how do you edit macro?

Thanks

You can search for more than one value by using a regular expression.

eg. searching for "Error\|Warning" (without the quotes) will find the word Error or the word Warning. Make sure you have the regular expression box ticked in the search window. Note that the "|" in the above expression is the pipe symbol, which is shift+\ on your keyboard.

I am not aware of any way to edit a macro.

Hope this helps

Are you sure about the keyboard?

It depends on the keyboard layout used.
E.g. on my German keyboard it is in an entirely different place.
