iPhone trick

On the iPhone, if you do a double space you get a period and a space.
Is it possible to get PPro to duplicate this? Using Xp.

Create a Macro

Sorry but I am totally new to all of this and am in desperate need of some help...can someone tell me the
"Making Macros for Dummies" way to create/record a macro in this??

What Im trying to do is decrease a very tedious workload I have wherein I need to copy a line of numbers in Excel
then paste them in a webbrowser then tab through spaces and press enter then back for another line on
Excel...Id like to automate the4 entire process which is actually about 30 key strokes and totaling over
1,000 lines in Excel so you can see why it would be tedious.

ANY help at all with this would be greatly appreciated as I need to get this work done this week!!

Thanks

PowerPro on Vista

Hi folks,

I have a notebook with Vista for a couple of years. I installed PPro
4.8 and used the configuration of my PC which runs XP. It didn't work
completely, but for the most important tasks it did.

Today I installed PPro 4.9 with Vista support. I learned that it has
to be run in admin mode. Does that mean that all applications started
from PPro run with admin privileges too? If so, how can I prevent this?
Or can't I?

Have a good time. :)
Peter

Re: What use?

Davidt,

I use Ppro to easily access different programs and directories where I 
keep things. It is much easier to find them.
I also use it to quickly launch Word, Excel, or to pull up one of those 
files in the current year folder (I have many yearly items, and some 
general for my business, so I use ppro to create a menu of the Word 
files in that directory.

I started using powerpro to save interesting e-mail/ web information 
into a nice generic text file for future reference.  I have a nice menu 
of files where I 'add to the end of the file' the copied information.

I also use the timer feature to make sure I don't space out too much on 
Facebook, or other websites that I tend to 'enjoy' :-)

I also use a countdown timer for presentations, where Powerpro
starts a timer
minimizes all folders
'hides' all desktop icons
displays a certain icon for this presentation

After the countdown goes to 0.00
changes the wallpaper to a comic strip
plays an MP3 file (to call folks in)

At end of the 60 sec interlude (set up as a 'wait' in ppro)
runs a video clip - a commercial from Youtube, or other item
in background - changes wallpaper back to original
restores icons

This all sounds great but as a newbie it would help more if some of the people who are fluent in writing these
little tricks and time savers could actually post a copy of everything that they can.

It is easier for someone like me to look through others work to have things click on how to either run my own
script or at times just copy yours for my needs.

Of course I would expect you to clean out any personal info but if names are there a john doe or xxx for numbers
would be great.

on pcreReplaceCallback

This message is for my understanding of the pcreReplaceCallback. I don't see how it references the search. 

In a previous message I got this gentle script:

-------------
static MatchNo=0
local text = file.readall("m:/file.txt")
local p=regex.pcreMatch(?"(?m)^\#+$\K", text)
local sScript = "." ++ scriptname ++ "@callbackNumbering"
local q=regex.pcreReplaceCallback(?"(?m)^\#\K", text, sScript, "", "", p)
file.writeall("m:/filenum.txt", q)
quit

Function callbackNumbering()
static MatchNo=MatchNo+1
quit(MatchNo)
--------------

Now, I'm trying to discover how I could take profit of this pcreReplaceCallback. According to the help file:

"Replaces multiple matches of a regular expression within a subject string in accordance with a custom
Powerpro script. By default the entire match is targeted for replacement, but optionally, a single
substring can be targeted instead."

In my humble understanding, it means the next thing: I have a simple script:

-------------
local text = "a man told to me:\r\nonce upon a time\r\nthere was a princess\r\nand a prince\r\nin a castle"
local u = case ("upper", text)
messagebox("OK", u)

the ampersand variables

silvermoonwoman2001 wrote:

"I don't think the old ampersand evaluation of variables should ever be 
used in a powerpro script."

This is a part of an script I use everyday

day = formatdate("ddMMyy","&(date)")
hour = formattime("HH","&(time)")
num = "&(day).&(hour).&(uptime)"
nom = inputtext
....
Keys {sinp}id=&(nom)_&(num)"

It works well. How could I write it without the ampersand?.

on text location

I would like to know if it is possible to make some operations inside a simple text file (*.txt) from a
specific position. Something like to get all the lines begining with # or all the words according to the
pattern "the (article) word (any word)"

I have found the string function find(string1,string2, start), it returns the position of a string and,
besides, I am almost sure of reading that "regex.pcrematch" returns the position of a search also. When
you get these positions inside the text file, can you make a "find / replace" from it until the end of the
file?. Or, is it possible to make any of these operations just until this position from the begining of the
text file? I don't get to find how this can be made. I don't find any function to locate a position inside a
text file even if it is converted into a string using "readall".

Windows 7 and User Account Control

I've been using PowerPro for probably close to ten years.  Mostly what I use it for is to just have a menu pop up
on the screen wherever I want of my favorite programs without having to go through the Windows start menu.

Now with Windows 7 UAC always prompts me at startup to let PowerPro run.  I can't find any way around this other
than turning off UAC completely, which I don't really want to do.

Anyone have any other ideas?  If not, does anyone know of another program that will allow you to create pop up
windows of the programs/commands you choose in Windows that doesn't set off UAC?

Thanks,
Kirt

Declare Function BlatSend Lib "blat.dll" Alias "Send" (ByVal sCmd As String) As Integer

const VersionNumber$ = "2.5"		'Monday, May 1, 2011

'pieces of strings to assemble for email

-----I am trying to find this:

My regex is close, I think, but needs something.
I appreciate any help!
