Keyboard Macro Issue for Sort F9

Post by Blickie »

v7.40

I start Record a Macro,
Alt T (for Tools Menu)
S (for Sort F9)
Alt L (for Length)
100 (for Length Entry)
Alt I + Spacebar (to select Case insensitive Radio Button)
Enter Key (to execute the Sort)

Stop Record and then save the Macro.

When I recall the named Macro, all entries except the Enter Key action is not saved. I have to select the OK Button to execute.

What am I doing wrong that the Enter Key Action is not being saved in the Macro?

Thanks
Tom

Most probably this issue is closely related to my earlier complaint - http://forums.textpad.com/viewtopic.php?t=12823

Probably, it's just not remembering keystrokes like it should.

Thanks for your comment....starting to think I was crazy :)

Did you get the Command Cancelled! error (displayed on the status bar) as well?

I'm wondering why the TextPad team did not response to this.

No Error Messages anywhere.

My macro would work if it would remember the Enter Key and execute it.

Thanks
