Hi Ton

I downloaded and installed AutoIt without difficulty. Have run the "Run Me
First" script without difficulty. Have read the help text.

However ... where's the interface to record or write a script? I'm totally
lost.

Obviously, I'm going to need a little "hand holding" here. What do I do
first? etc. Is this even the right program to start with?

Re: your NumLock problem ... I've had several weird things solved very
quickly by the guys on the Excel-L List. These people really know what they
are doing.

This should be a very productive year, lots of new things to work on re the
integration of Metastock and Excel.

Best regards

Walter

| Automating MSK+internet :
|
| Been using the following for years now :(ScriptIt is Win(dows)Script(ing))
|
| Go to my homepage and download AutoWinNet 4.6.
| That program is your simplest+fastest Internet Download "vehicle".
| (Proper replacement for the Subcribe program that ships with IE).
|
| While there, read on up 'bout the ScriptIt or AutoIt programs, and make
your choise (or use both).
| Any of these 2 programs is your simplest+fastest automated MSK's Convert
"vehicle".
|
| No learning languages (VB or VBScript) is required(also present there, but
the above is child level
| stuff compared to VB).
| Then just get used to automating Windows via the ScripIt or AutoIt
scripting "vehicles" way.
| Free as well as easy!!!
|
| Else you can also opt for Excel's Internet queries, but this is quite a
large "user involvement"
| in setting up(macro's+cells) and maintnance(read:updating, since webpages
do change in
| appearances: layout+adddresses and other misc.errors).
|
| Walter: Why is, at the end of one of my VBA macro's, the KB's NumLock-Key
automaticaly
|              been switched OFF?
|              (eg each time an excel macro is run, and it needs a "manual
corrective" ON press later,
|              after a macro is finished)
