Define macro

Button text
The button text is information only and is not used when the macro is executed.

Macro string
When entering a macro string, in addition to plain text, there are several conventions, all of which are signaled using the caret (^). If you wish to enter a 'real' caret then you must type it twice (^^).

Control characters may be entered using the normal convention with a letter following the caret symbol. For example, a return is ^M and a line feed is ^J.

You may also send specific ASCII codes in hexadecimal, decimal, or octal form by following the caret with a $, #, or & character, and the desired code:

^#ddd

decimal specification

^&ooo

octal specification

^$hh

hexadecimal specification

Note that decimal and octal codes must be 3 digits and prefixed with 0 if it is 2 digit codes.

Macro string tip
Use the Record toolbar macro function to define the required macro and then copy the macro string generated and insert it as Macro string. The generated string is found in Setting->Toolbar setup. Select the macro and then the Modify function found in the drop down Action list.
