Hi Paul

Thanks for the more detailed scenario.
No great solutions, just a few general ideas:
It seems like it might be the fault of Outlook, but that may be irrelevant.
You probably can't change Outlook as easily as changing your Powerpro
script. It seems that the part of PowerPro which Outlook disturbs is
HookWindowsEvent, so can we do as well without it? I think so...
P> I definitely don't want multiple hot keys (1 per login dialog box),
P> and I'd rather not have the values in two places (command list and
P> hot key) as they change frequently
I agree that it's important to centralise all your commands.
I usually avoid script files when the dialogs will do, but in this case,
I think you'd see it most clearly all in one script file.
The hotkeys, bar buttons, command list items, should all be stripped down
to a simple command which only "tells the script they've been pressed"
by calling the script at labels like @hot3 or @button2 with:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
or maybe send its ID as arg1 to the script:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]("button2")
I've noticed the hot scripters do it that way all the time :-)
The hotkeys are never edited because they contain no varying info.
One set of hotkeys will do for all the different dialogs.
The contexts and conditions can be checked in the script, which has
some statics such as keysloaded, and routines for testing which input
dialog is active and pasting the right words.
Once it's set up that way, you only need to edit the script, never
needing to cross check with the Keys/Mouse diakog or a command list.
BTW
The script could use: Exec Hotkeys on / off / reverse
Note that you can "specify a list of blank-separated hot key names
after on/off/reverse to act only on those hot keys."
Full details in Help re Exec.
That could be used by the script in response to whatever hotkey
or button you set to toggle the group of hotkeys. Enabling/disabling
them with Exec is just an alternative to making/deleting them with
inifile imports.
