Link above was thought provoking but the code I couldn't get working. One thing I have noticed, I switched on debugging at work and now a lot of websites throw errors they never did in IE6, including some very professional ones from people who claim to make a sale every 5 seconds (RS...

Thanks folks - I tried on IE6 and it works there. I did look for a user setting in the browser menus and failed. But that does not help me unless I can overide the user setting in JavaScript which is a bit of an imposition on the surfer. I will look into the link above. there is a tide in the...

just found this page (vintage 2002) and it behaves the same, no access to status line. Even though it is saying it should work. IE7 or JavaScript changes? http://www.albany.edu/~pl7644/isp361/statuslines.html there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut ignore.................

Hi I have been using a line self.status= goforit ;in older browsers and suddenly realised the "status" function has changed, it no longer reports any content. see http://cresby.com and "errors". I am using the status line to put a message (the day of the month - eg "3rd Fri"). Any ideas...

Just a thought - is it possible to put a no-break space just to fool the editor? the only thing that works here other than a space is shift and space - is that any different in reality? there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut ignore.................

have a look at my thread http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1454811&page=1 - It will give you a enough of clues to start, the beginnings of the code came from a thread I link to from there. I don't do comments much. Sorry. there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut...

have you tried typing dim in lower case and seeing what it does? Excel 2002 does not show the symptom here. there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut ignore.................

I lied. It was keeping the same instance of the browser and just changing the URL. However I was setting a few things more often than necessary so I "iffed" it to do it once. eg .Navigate strURL If n = 1 Then .MenuBar = True .StatusBar = True .Toolbar = 0 .Visible = True...

I just had IE7 installed against my wishes because there is always a "but". And this is the worst so far. The code above that used to work a treat now has a fault where when it gets past the Do While ie.ReadyState <> 4: DoEvents: Loop 'wait for IE to finish line it can sometimes...

slight correction - until this proves wrong (no I don't know why one works then and not now). _zoom e tilemode 0 _.PSPACE; _zoom e -purge All * N qsave there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut ignore.................

This seems to do it, if there are better ways my addled brain can't be bothered to investigate. 10 years is a long time in the apps/versions game! zoom e tilemode 0 _.PSPACE; zoom e -purge All * N qsave there is a tide in the affairs of man that you Cnut ignore.................

I found how to work a macro that did most of what I wanted which disappeared when the Administrator changed our network. Legacy scripts run as they always did but dont translate automatically to a macro. I want a single click to: run a named macro or the translation of this code It is to save...
