I believe Svper had a slightly different version of the last 2 steps. He mentioned that his example is very basic. I imagine him just changing the steps prior to copy/pasting the code to the forums.
We want to discuss ideas and pseudocode them. Maybe we can post an easy example. But I think the forums are moving more to 'idea discussion' and away from 'post yer iwin macros' .
In my opinion, posting your macros leads to a lot of misinformation. Most people just cut and paste and get frustrated when it doesn't work. They don't want to spend the time learning how to macro or how to box. Instead they want free macros and software with wizards.
After they get all their freebee stuff, don't get it to work, they flame the hands that feeds them.
I work for a living and I have spent many hours of my play time (which is little) to learn how to box. I did ask questions, but I put in the time first.
Lately I have been seeing posts like "I got a new puter, shoe me yer macros" or some variation of it. Its great to help, but we should be "teaching them how to fish" and not "giving them fish".
