Hello, My macro should run on files of every system (and hence different line terminators). Because of that reason I turned "automatic conversion to DOS" in UEs options on, but that leads to a crash when opening the file by "Open"-Command (see my previous post) Find MatchCase RegExp "^the matching t...

I think I found the reason for this problem. Because of getting the files from DOS and UNIX-Systems I turned "automatic conversion into DOS-format" in UEs option ON. When turning this conversion OFF there's no crash.

thanx Mofi, but your hint didn't help, UE still crashes. I'll report that error to IDM.

Hi, I have a problem with some of my macros, that nearly drive my crazy. When running them, UE sometimes (but not always!) crashed. I thought the problem could be fixed with the actual UE-Version, but now these problem-macros make UE crashing always. But I think I found the reason: In these macros a...

Hey Mofi! you're such a UE-Guru!!! :lol: It really works now. The reason is the use of start "Excel" in the command line in front of the path to excel.exe What's that start command for, I've no idea, is it a DOS-command? The thing works even without DOS-window but not when trying to set Program Type...

Well, the problem is just when calling the tool from WITHIN A MACRO by "RunTool Excel". When opening the tool from the UE-Menu-icon, everthing works fine (I can work with Excel and UE parallel). Of course I could start excel manually too, but it's a little bit more comfort when starting automatically.

I use the "RunTool" command within a UE-macro to open Excel automatically to manipulate some data there. Excel opens correctly, but when I want to switch back to UE, I just see a white window (busy?). I have to end Excel to see the UE window again. How to work parallel with this 2 programms when Exc...

Have you disabled "Capture Output" which is possible only for DOS programs? I had the same problem with starting ANY windows program. The problem was that "Capture Output" was active by default. I thought this would just affect DOS programs, because that option is in the "only DOS commands" part of...

Thanks Mofi, it's very simple and it worked! :-)

I've got a macro that searches for a specific line and deletes everthing above that line: Find ... Key HOME SelectToTop Delete This specific line is very long and wrapped in my window it takes 2 or 3 rows. The problem is, that the "Key HOME" just moves the cursor to column 1 of the 2nd or 3rd row of...

Servus Mofi! THANX VERY MUCH, for the effort you always put into answering different questions about UE in this forum for us users!! :D

Hi, I've got 2 lists with several colums and I want to merge them in the following way. Is this somehow possible with UE, or do I have to use other software (Excel,..) or programming language (Visual Basic, Perl)? note: The names of List1 are less than in List2, cause they are just a subset. List 1:...

Hi, I've got a list with lines of 11 different words and numbers. Each of this single line should be converted in 11 XML-lines. But with \1,\2,..,\9 I can only adress 9 of these values per line :? . What can I do to use all fields of a line with one Find-and-Replace action? I want: replace line: wor...

Mofi, your macro works, but 3 questions: How does you Macro know if the EOF is reached for exiting the loop (the Macro works without IfEof)? Is there a macro which first selects all consecutive lines and copy them in one sweep to the clipboard (like I would do it manually, it's quicker than copying ...

Hi, Since I'm a newbie I'm not sure how to write a Macro for my problem: Just keep the lines starting with a special phrase. (If the phrase is in the middle of a line: delete line too) Before: This is Line 1 And another Line 2 Again another Line3 Starting phrase blablabla1 Starting phrase blabla2 An...
