iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

Need assistance with writing a macro

Post by alisondmurray » Thu Apr 19, 2018 7:27 am

ok, I am not sure I am in the right forum section. So please move if need be.
I have a current macro that is running great. The issue that has become the problem is a change on the website I am going too. Sometimes when the macro puts in the correct information and clicks enter. The website asks for one more piece of info. it becomes a dropdown box that need to be clicked and then arrow down 1 position. but this is not all the time. So how can I get my imacro to go to the intermittent box and arrow down 1 to give the website the information needed?
thank you in advance!

- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial').
