"Macro Compiler Error ) Expected" On Macros |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The error "Macro compiler error ) expected...Edit or Save Anyway" was appearing when compiling a macro. This macro compiled fine in 6.0c. Solutions: To successfully compile this macro command you would need to use a pair of smartquotes to represent a single smartquote. One of the following would work: Type("[4,32][4,32]some text[4,31][4,31]") or Type(""[4,32]some text"[4,31]") The last example works because WP61 uses the last quote in a pair of quotes to determine the type of quote to print. Causes: The user had the command Type("[4,32]some text[4,32]") in his macro (the [4,32] and [4,32] are WP characters represent opening and closing smartquotes). The error was occuring because 6.1 for DOS now looks at smartquote characters in the same way that it looks at neutral quotes. You can now type an entire macro using smartquotes without error. |
