Re: Identify when a button is active

Thanks for the formation. I'll see what I can do with this. Just an fyi......if the button doesn't become active, the macro checks to see if the web-site has moved on to the next page (when the button is clicked). It then writes a message to the Excel file and moves on. The goal is to reduce the num...

Identify when a button is active

I've created a macro that adds information to a number of fields in a web-site. It works fairly well. The last step is to push the "submit" button. This button isn't "active" until the web-site performs some validation after data is entered in the last field. I currently have a 7...

Re: Extracting data with Chrome addon

Chivracq………...Thanks for the info. When I didn't see the extract function, I thought maybe our IT department didn't get the installation correct. I should be able to add EXTRACT to the code to get what I need. I appreciate your help with these questions. I saw that you mainly use FF as your browser ...

Extracting data with Chrome addon

I'm trying to learn more about the Chrome addon in hopes that it may solve some issues I have with pop-ups. I'm able to open iMacros in Chrome. My issue is I don't seem to be able to extract data with the Chrome addon. If I use the IM or IE browser, there are buttons to extract data. Easy. However, ...

Macro works in Enterprise Edition but not with the Player Edition

I've developed a macro to fill in a number of fields in a web site and click a "validate" and "submit" button. On my machine, with the Enterprise Edition, it runs as expected. I've tested it a number of times and haven't had any issues. I sent the macro to a field user, who has t...

Re: iMacros 12 not recording keystrokes or extracting data

I wasn't able to use that because IT has our machines locked down. I shared it with someone that has a similar issue (different company) and they said it helped them. So that's why I marked the answer that way. I often post the same question on multiple forums as I've gotten good answers from all of...

Re: iMacros 12 not recording keystrokes or extracting data

Thanks. I would like to install and test the software myself. However, IT strictly controls what can be added to user's machines. It would make my life simpler if I could install this stuff. I tested it with the code you provided and it looks like I have the free version . VAR3 works but VAR4 doesn'...

Re: iMacros 12 not recording keystrokes or extracting data

Thanks...…….They installed iMacros for Chrome. Is that the add-on or is the add-on a different file? How can I tell if the Add-On has been installed? They also installed the File Access Module (at least they said they did). how can I confirm that this has been installed? Also what does FIO stand for...

Thanks for the reply. I apologize for not sharing much info. I'm constrained in what I'm able to share. I'll try the things you suggest. I'm also trying to get the Chrome add-in to see if that will be of any help. If I get the Chrome add-in, will any field users also need it to run this macro? Or is...

iMacros 12 not recording keystrokes or extracting data

I’m creating a Excel macro with iMacros and VBA. I've done this before without too many issues on a number of web sites. I started off using the iMacros browser. I got about 1/2 way through entering data on the web page without any issues. So far so good. This particular web page has a number of sec...

iMacros closes when selecting a dropdown

I'm trying to record a macro to automate running a custom report. One of the fields is a "Month End" field. When you click on the drop down you get the previous 12 month end dates (12/31/18, 11/30/18, etc.). I can click on this field and run the report manually without any issues. When I t...

Re: Log Events Checkbox

Thanks for confirming the degradation. I'm actually going to uncheck those boxes and have a field user run the macro to see how it works after those changes. I'm not sure how they got checked in the first place, but if this works out, we can update our support documentation to uncheck those boxes wh...
