It was not so long ago that I didn't know how to import a macro posted on this board. Here are instructions for those of you who want to use the macros posted in this section.

1. Highlight the macro code in the message. (Hold down the left mouse button as you move across the text you want to highlight).

2. Copy the highlighted code. (Right click on the highlighted text, scroll to COPY on the menu that pops up and left click on the mouse).

3. Open Power-Home if not already opened.

4. Click on the MAINTENANCE drop down menu on the top left-hand corner of the Power-Home program.

5. Highlight and then left click on MULTI-EDITOR in the drop down menu. A script editor window pops up.

6. In the script editor window, left click to get focus in that window.

7. Right click, highlight paste and left click. The macro you just copied from the PH message board should appear in the editor window.

8. On the Power-Home main window (top left) click on EDIT. Go down to the bottom of the list and click on EXECUTE SCRIPT.

9. Watch the bottom of the script editor window for messages. It will either tell you the import was successful or there was an error. If the import was successful your macro has been created and is ready to use.

NOTE: A usual error is that a macro already exists with the name of the new macro you're trying to create. Try to rename the old macro (i.e duplicate it with a new name and delete the original macro.)
