Hi all

First post - and a question!

I've substituted $-6$ for the server name into a macro as I expected this to be taken as the server that I was logged on to. However, this has just resulted in getting the 'cannot resolve server name $-6$...' blah blah message. Does anyone know how to make a macro (run from user tool) server independent??

Cheers.

Well,

From the User Tool, I'm not sure how or if it can be done.

If you put the macro on the server though, $%$ will work to substitute the current server (the one the macro is on).

Some ideas...

1) You can be logged on to more than one server in a user-tool at the same time.
2) If you then connect to two servers, A and B, in a user tool.
3) Then you run a server-independant macro that opens the User-form
4) Will the User-form be opened from server A or server B?

This leads me into thinking that a macro launched from the User-tool has to include a server-name. If not there is no way of knowing which server to perform the actions against.

But these are just my ideas. I can't point to any documentation saying this.
