hi all,
have not posted for some time but been here all the time reading....
I have the following questions for ideas:
I need a macro that toggles on/off on X10
if the status is off the command sent must be on and reverse.... I've already got it working but maybe you have some ideas to make it more beautifull...
Peter

This is a method I used for error recovery and it worked for me but it requires one to set 2 Globals. One with an X10 device and the other the Level of that device when an X10 command was sent. I used this to recover all my X10 devices after a power failure or I visually detected some lighting issues. This could easily be modified to toggle the X10 device in question. Though I don’t know if it makes it "more beautiful". 
IF (PH_GETGLOBAL_N(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10LEVEL_GLOBAL")) = 0, PH_X10BTN(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10_GLOBAL"), XOFF, 0), PH_X10BTN(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10_GLOBAL"), XOFF, 0) + PH_X10BTN(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10_GLOBAL"), XON, 0) + PH_X10BTN(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10_GLOBAL"), XDIM, PH_GETGLOBAL_N(PH_GETGLOBAL_S("X10LEVEL_GLOBAL"))))

been away for a time sorry for that but my work as a union-representative forces me to now, I now have to prevent 53-workers from being fired....
I am going to give it a try BeachBum but can't say when I've got the time again since most of my days are spent in court and at the mainoffice in Weert getting this firingplan off the table.
so I'd have to add 2 globals:
X10_Global and X10level and that's it?

The level global is loaded in a routine from a group of all the devices I want to test. I have a global for each devices desired level. When I make a change to a device level I update its level global. In the macro I loop thought the group until I run out the bottom. This is an example of the global set:
PH_SETGLOBAL_S("X10_GLOBAL", "GBR_DRESSER") + PH_SETGLOBAL_S("X10LEVEL_GLOBAL", "X10LEVEL_GBR_DRESSER")
X10_GLOBAL is SET directly whereas X10LEVEL_GLOBAL is SET from a global for the level of that device. The end result is each device is reset to its intended level. If in a macro I am dealing with only one device then I modify the IF statement so I don’t do a double Getglobal. Good luck with your negotiations..

Negotiations going OK... thanks, originally I have this macro checking if the shutters are open or closed and if any errors are there...
Code:
insert into macroheader values ('RFIDDOOR','RFIDDOOR',0,0,1);
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',1,38,'',0,'case([X10STATK4] when 2 then Case({ROLVOOR} when 1 then
ph_macro("VOORDEURROLLUIK DICHT")))',0,'');
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',2,38,'',0,'case([X10STATK4] when 1 then Case({ROLVOOR} when 2 then
ph_macro("VOORDEURROLLUIK DICHT")))',0,'');
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',3,38,'',0,'case([X10STATK4] when 2 then Case({ROLVOOR} when 2 then
ph_macro("VOORDEURROLLUIK DICHT") else case([X10STATK4] when 1 then Case({ROLVOOR} when 1 then ph_macro("VOORDEURROLLUIK OPEN")))))',0,'');

If the shutters are being closed, a GV is set and checked when an RFID-Check is done...
The same when shutters being opened...
both GV and status have to be the same for an action to be taken....
if these are not the same, then the shutter is closed first...

What was I thinking!!! 
it's better and cleaner to do just this:
Code:
insert into macroheader values ('RFIDDOOR','RFIDDOOR',0,0,1);
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',1,38,'',0,'[X10STATK4]+{ROLVOOR}',0,'');
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',2,38,'',0,'IF([X10STATK4]+{ROLVOOR}=3,PH_MACRO("VOORDEURROLLUIK DICHT"),0)',0,'');
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',3,38,'',0,'IF ([X10STATK4]+{ROLVOOR}=2, PH_MACRO("VOORDEURROLLUIK OPEN"),0)',0,'');
insert into macrodetail values ('RFIDDOOR',4,38,'',0,'IF ([X10STATK4]+{ROLVOOR}=4, PH_MACRO("VOORDEURROLLUIK DICHT"),0)',0,'');

instead of checking a status and a gv, I can add the to together and check the result of the adding...
less code...
