In early versions of Wordperfect, I was able to create macros that captured
keystrokes and replayed them. I wonder if there is a way to do that in Word
2000?
For example, I have several folders under "my documents." I would create a
macro that lets me open a particular folder so I can choose any file to open
from it. But if I record a macro, I have to go all the way to choosing a
file to open and then the macro always opens that file rather than stopping
the file-open dialog so I can choose any file in that folder. If I could
just record the keystrokes as far as doing file>open>choose the folder and
then wait there for my choice of documents, it would be helpful.
Is there a way to just record the keystrokes?
(Please note that someone, years ago, created just such a file-open macro
for me. So I do have a macro to do what I said above. But it's not something
like a macro that replays keystrokes that I could use for any series of
keystrokes. I just used that as an example.)
I hope this all makes sense!
