I am wanting to run a macro program.

Eg EZMACRO

The macro I want to run has a hotkey assigned.

Lets say ALT-Z.

I would like arev to execute an ALT-Z when I press F9.

Problem - Arev is not sending ALT-Z no matter how I do it.

It only works if I physically press ALT-Z on the keyboard.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

have you running something like

catalyst("K",Key)

for the save process (where Key is the assignment you wish to replace)?

or use a macro assignment to replace F9 (which might and might not work)

Thanks Karen

But unfortunatly I have tried catalyst('K', '{ }')

I have also tried Macros Alt-0

I have also tried @data

None of these methods seem to actually make the computer think

I am hitting the key, I have to physically hit ALT-Z for the

computer to activate the Macro.

Thanks for your help.

I liked the document and found it very interesting.

I am not able to get this working at the moment.

I dont think this document is addressing the problem.

I need the computer to think I pressed a key without actually

pressing the key physically.

Have you tried loading @DATA or @PLAYBACK with the keystroke you're trying to send? I think ALT-Z should be char(0):CHAR(44).

No - we have since established that Terry is trying to feed an Alt-Z into an EXTERNAL Macro package so Terry has been pointed at a keyboard buffer stuffer from SimTel.
