RE: Macros? Tom S. 2/14/2007 4:41:45 PM I would press that button a thousand times if I could :) I have many scripts in the other MS programs and I miss them in ON. Tom S.

Erik, Thanks for the reply. This is great if you are a developer. Not so good if you are a user like me and want to call up a built in editor and bang out a quick VB-type macro in less than an hour like you can in Word and Excel and Outlook. I like the flexibility that this feature provides for me but I also understand that the average user doesn't use this facility as much as someone like me (not a developer but also more inclined to take time to customize). In addition I understand that ON is still a young program and that everything can be done at once. Nevertheless I certainly do hope that MS manages to get something like this in the next release. Much of the code must already be there in the other Office programs so maybe that's a reason to hope. Tom S.

Well, this is what I get for posting without checking things out. There is a ON VB library. It's accessible through the editor that comes with the other MS programs. It looks pretty small and basic but it is there. I would assume that any script would have to run from my chosen program (i.e. Outlook in my case for the most part). I guess at some point I'll take a little time to see what it can do. Tom S.
