It seems strange that a simple hotkey works but a macro doesn't. That suggests it is not a problem with hotkeys being taken over by another app, maybe an error in setting up the macro. D> Any other ideas? I suggest that rsiebler try these trouble-shooting tests and tell us the results: [1] set the hotkey for = with no modifiers such as Shift for the hotkey with command: keys parameter: abc The box called "Blank for all windows..." should be empty. Test by pressing the = key while notepad is focussed. I gather from David's message that this should work. If that does not work, then it's a problem with hotkeys not with macros. [2] if [1] works, make a new command list called: macros2 whose first item has the name: test and only one Left command: keys parameter: abc Also change the = hotkey's command to: macro with parameter: macros2 Click Apply in pproconf, then type: =test while notepad is focussed. If that does not work but [1] did work, then it's a problem with macros but not with hotkeys. [3] if [2] works, change the command for the item with name "test" in the macros2 command list from keys abc to the command you were using for your macro previously. Click Apply in pproconf, then type: =test while notepad is focussed. If it does not go wrong until step [3] then it is a fault in the command for the "test" item in your macros command list. Please post the complete command(s) for the item which the macro is intended to run. Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
