------- Additional comments from [email protected] Tue Apr 7 14:39:08 +0000 2009 ------- I am still downloading 3.0.1, but I have examined the Macro language on my Nephew's computer, and find it to be similar spaghetti code to MS VBA I'm sure there are people who have gotten used to: FormatFont .fontname.="Arial .fontize.=12 .bold.="ON" .Italic.="OFF" .Underline. ="" etc. For those of us who learned programming the "old way", can we have a side-by- side macro engine that copes with comma delineation. FormatFont Arial, 12, B, i,, In the same way as the first example makes the text Arial 12 Bold non-italic and leaves Underline untouched by the "" null, so my example performs exactly the same function, the Capital B turning on Bold, the small i turning Italic Off and the empty comma ignoring the Underline --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
