Does anyone help me to share a macro(saved on my textpad) with my colleague?

TextPad looks for macro files (*.tpm) in the folder defined in Configuration:
Configure/Preferences/Folders/Macros.

Two simple methods come to mind:

1. Copy the macro file to their computer and store on proper directory.
OR
2. Store your macros on a shared network resource and have each computer point to the correct path for the network macro folder.

Thanks! Bob
It was helpful, I was just looking for the path where *.TPM file generates.
I got that now after your comments.

Generally, in xp I guess the path is \Documents and Settings\{user}\Application Data\TextPad.

Hi
I copied a macro(.tpm) file from my system and placed in the appropiate path of another system, but I am unable to see the copied macro in the new system. Can anyone know how to share a macro within different systems. P.N that both textpad has same version.

Did you check the settings noted above?

Does the user have permissions for this folder?

You won't see it on the menu unless you add it, follow these steps:

Configure-->Preferences

Select Macros

List on the left is Macros available, select your copied macro and add to list on the right, then it appears on the menu pulldown.
