Sometimes you need to schedule a recorded macro in order to replay it at some specific time/date. We made it very easy for you to schedule a macro right from the Macro Recorder's main window. Just select "Tools - Schedule macros" in the menu, set up a schedule and Macro Recorder will create a scheduled task, that launches the currently opened macro using Windows' built-in task scheduler.
After you click "Tools - Schedule macros", the available frequency options are "Daily", "Weekly", "Monthly" and "One time". Simply select one of these schedules, set the "first launch" date & time and click "OK". The "first launch" date will also be used to schedule the future runs. For example, if you select the "weekly" schedule and set the first launch to "Thursday, 3am", the macro will launch every Tuesday, at 3am. Another example: if you set the frequency to "monthly" and the first launch is set to "January 2nd", the future playbacks will trigger on February 2nd, March 2nd, April 2nd etc. etc.
Jitbit Macro Recorder does not have a built-in macro-scheduler service and uses Windows' built-in "task-scheduler" service. This is intentional - you don't need another background program or service sitting in your system-tray, consuming memory and CPU. We don't want to clutter our customers boxes with one more auto-start item. Also, if a system administrator wants to see what's been scheduled on his machine - he can see it all in one place, without checking all the apps in the system.
In one click the Script Compiler converts a macro into an EXE file which will run on any Windows PC. Macro Scheduler does not have to be installed for the EXE to run. No other files need to be installed for the .EXE to run - it is a completely standalone Windows application and is suitable for task automation on any Windows computer.
You can run the EXE just by double clicking on it in Explorer or typing it at the command line or Start/Run dialog. You could also create a shortcut to it. It could also be run by a task scheduler or third party application.
WOW!!!! I am so happy, first with Macro Scheduler Pro, second with the company behind a product that is dedicated to customer service, and third that I have a free weekend to macro myself crazy!!! Thanx for the rapid response, I am already a proud owner of MSPro!!!
Some of the noteworthy features of Macro Scheduler include the ability to capture text from windows (which you can them programmatically parse), compare bitmaps for similarity, and produce fairly robust interactive dialog boxes.It has a somewhat more robust programming environment than some competing programs, such as AutoHotKey. AutoIt is comparable or superior in coding strength, but is not as focused on organizing/running macros.
* Note there are now less runtime DLLs required. If compiling a macro using text capture functions please see the compiler topic in the help file for details of which files need to be included with your .exe. Note also that this change has neccessitated a slight change of design for the text capture wizard for point capture.
1. Schedule the macro in Macro Properties (Run When tab) and set up a repeating schedule, e.g. repeat every 1 minute.
2. Loop the actual script code. Open your recorded macro up in the script editor (just double click it). Then add some code, e.g.:
Macro Scheduler is a complete macro utility that lets you record repetitive actions and then have the computer repeat them for yourself. These actions can go from the simplest ones like repetitive clicks to more complex ones such as data entry and response to several different user dialog windows.
Macro Scheduler not only includes a handful of ready-made macros, but also features a built-in editor that you can use to create your own. Though the developer's page states it's really easy and doesn't require programming experience, the truth is that you may feel a bit confused at first. Luckily, Macro Scheduler is thoroughly documented so it won't take you long to get to grips with the program.
ok so it cant run 2 macros at same time i get that but lets say you repeat one every 30 min and 1 every hour how does the priority work? if both would happend to trigger same time? does it start from bottom of the list or top? or does it go by name? or is it just random whatever would happend and the other is skipped?
Beginning in Access It! Universal.NET 6.1, support has been added for a schedule tab that displays a calendar listing all the Macros scheduled. Existing Macro's can be edited by double clicking, or right clicking on a scheduled Macro. To create a new macro for a specific day, double click or right click on the day and select New Basic Macro.
When I remote log into the machine (as Administrator) the excel gui is nowhere to be seen. Under task manager one can see that excel.exe is running (as is my macro, since report files continue to be written).
I've set the task scheduler to run the task as administrator, and to run whether the user is logged in or not. Are there any other settings I should be aware of that relate to starting excel in the foreground from a scheduled task?
I previously had similar issues, and the way I resolved it was by creating a batch file instead. I let the task scheduler run the batch file, and then I let the batch file run Excel/scripts/macros. This allows Excel to open up the same way that you would if you manually opened it.
Now, the script is much more than this and I need it to run as a scheduled task(or similiar) once a day on a server. I've created a scheduled task, which works whether the user is logged on or not and that works as expected as well, but at the point where it executes the macro, it just throws an exception and nothing happens as if it doesn't start the macro at all. I can confirm that it executes until opening the workbook
This link will help you some. It describes how to run vbs and excel macros from windows task scheduler. In addition to this, try vbs instead of python to find if it is a python problem OR try different user to run scheduled task OR try to give a different file name while you are saving then rename it as you want.
am also attaching the other method i tried, i used a button and added an action of running the macro, and again i wrote an another macro to trigger the button. but that is also not working. please suggest any changes in the macro.
tried adding this run macro option to a button, and if i click on that button manually its working perfectly correct. but in order to press the button after the reload again i have to go to an other macro, which is resulting in 2 macros and that is also not working.
But as macro based apps are not executed in QMC, we have to use windows batch scheduler to schedule this app, when i use /r in between qv.exe file and app name its just reloading but macro is not running.
This workflow takes the path(s) you specify and creates a list(via .bat file - eg windows only) of all your yxmd/mc Files/Paths and then runs through a batch macro to look for the keyword you are searching and returns the file name and path so you can copy and open to get on with your business.
The taskENTER_CRITICAL() and taskEXIT_CRITICAL() macros provide a basic criticalsection implementation that works by simply disabling interrupts, either globally,or up to a specific interrupt priority level. See the vTaskSuspendAll()RTOS API function for information on creating a critical section without disablinginterrupts.
- For PL/SQL jobs, navigate to the Request Details page and click the Execution Type icon. The database session information displays, correlating the scheduled job request with the database scheduler job. This indicates whether the job is still executing.
The RDBMS scheduler is capable of auto-turning. To enable auto-tuning, set job_queue_processes to 0. Leave JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES to the default value at 1000. For more information about the JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES parameter, see the Oracle Database Reference.
Oracle Enterprise Scheduler internally uses the Database Management System (DBMS) scheduler to schedule PL/SQL jobs. In some cases, the DBMS scheduler has not scheduled the job request, even though Oracle Enterprise Scheduler has submitted the job to the DBMS scheduler and set its state to RUNNING.
For PL/SQL jobs, Oracle Enterprise Scheduler will attempt to kill the RDBMS scheduler job. For spawned process, Oracle Enterprise Scheduler will try to kill the running process. If the job is successfully killed, the request will transition to CANCELLED state. If the job completes before it can be killed, the state to which the request will transition depends on the result of the job execution. For these type of jobs, this issue should not occur.
Parallel universe jobs are submitted from the machine running thededicated scheduler. The dedicated scheduler matches and claims a fixednumber of machines (slots) for the parallel universe job, and when asufficient number of machines are claimed, the parallel job is startedon each claimed slot.
Once the correct number of machines are claimed, theexecutable is startedat more or less the same time on all machines. If desired, amonotonically increasing integer value that starts at 0 may be providedto each of these machines. The macro $(Node) is similar to the MPIrank construct. This macro may be used within the submit descriptionfile in either thearguments orenvironment command.Thus, as the executable runs, it may discover its own $(Node) value.
A machine becomes a dedicated machine when an administrator configuresit to accept parallel jobs from one specific dedicated scheduler. Notethe difference between parallel and serial jobs. While any scheduler ina pool can send serial jobs to any machine, only the designateddedicated scheduler may send parallel universe jobs to a dedicatedmachine. Dedicated machines must be specially configured. Seethe Setting Up for Special Environments sectionfor a description of the necessary configuration, as well as examples.Usually, a single dedicated scheduler is configured for a pool which canrun parallel universe jobs, and this condor_schedd daemon becomes thesingle machine from which parallel universe jobs are submitted.
