Description
The SET MACKEY command enables or disables interactive keyboard macro recording and playing from within a form. Keyboard macros are keystrokes that have been recorded and stored in an ASCII file. By default, macro files have a ’.kbm’ extension.
The setting of MACKEY does not have any affect on the use of the SET CAPTURE and REPLAY commands.
When SET MACKEY is OFF, keyboard input recording/replaying is disabled. When SET MACKEY is ON, you may record and replay keyboard macros.
To begin capturing keystrokes, hold down the [CONTROL] key and press {O}. Release both keys and press {c}. A dialog box will be displayed asking for a filename to save keystrokes to. At this point capture mode is active. While in capture mode, ’Cap’ is displayed in the status bar. After pressing the keystrokes that you wish to capture, hold down the [CONTROL] and {O} keys, release them, and then press {c}.
Macro files are replayed by selecting them from the Macros Menu. To activate the Macros Menu, hold down the [CONTROL] and {O} keys, release them and press {r}.
