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

My CSV file is just one long string. I was hoping for commas or newlines
Code: Select all
TAB T=1
FILEDELETE NAME=presbytery.csv

TAG POS=1 TYPE=SELECT FORM=ACTION:church_search.jsp EXTRACT=TXTALL ATTR=NAME:pby_select
SAVEAS TYPE=EXTRACT FOLDER=* FILE=presbytery.csv
The file contents (truncated):

I confirmed this issue. There should be a [OPTION] tag between each selection. It will be fixed soon.
Please note that the command works well in the iMacros Browser and iMacros for Internet Explorer.
Example output:
"[Option]Alabama[Option]Alaska[Option]Arizona[Option]Arkansas[Option]California[Option]Colorado[Option]Connecticut[Option]Delaware[Option]District of Columbia[Option]Florida[Option]Georgia[Option]Hawaii[Option]Idaho[Option]Illinois[Option]Indiana[Option]Iowa[Option]Kansas[Option]Kentucky[Option]Louisiana[Option]Maine[Option]Maryland[Option]Massachusetts[Option]Michigan[Option]Minnesota[Option]Mississippi[Option]Missouri[Option]Montana[Option]Nebraska[Option]Nevada[Option]New Hampshire[Option]New Jersey[Option]New Mexico[Option]New York[Option]North Carolina[Option]North Dakota[Option]Ohio[Option]Oklahoma[Option]Oregon[Option]Pennsylvania[Option]Puerto Rico[Option]Rhode Island[Option]South Carolina[Option]South Dakota[Option]Tennessee[Option]Texas[Option]Utah[Option]Vermont[Option]Virginia[Option]Washington[Option]West Virginia[Option]Wisconsin[Option]Wyoming[Option]"
