Title: Running a macro problem

Hi all,
  I have a macro that I worte with all of your help that seems not to run correctly anymore.
My company has supplied me with a new machine, pentium 4 with win 2k, replaced a 266 with win 98.  I have Aturn v11.5, right now its running under a temp key until my IT can get a new key for it.

  This macro ran good on my old system, but now it seems that I have to execute the macro twice for it to work correctly.  I am not sure what is happening, but let me tell you what the macro is supposed to do.  It should process the code, then open up ultra edit and displays the code in ultra edit.  I have it asking me several questions before it processes the code as well, such as file number I want to use, drawing and rev #, including which machine I will be using.  What it seems like is that it isn't selecting the tmp/smf file the first time I run it, which, when it opens ultra edit I have an empty file displayed.  After I run it a 2nd time, then it seems to work properly until I close smartcam.

  After restarting smartcam and running the macro, smartcam closes and I get a pop-up window which states "aturn.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows.  You will need to restart the program."  "an error log is being created".  I can't find this error log, so I don't know what the error is and I think I need to restart windows for this error to go away.

   I don't think that by posting the macro, it would help in solving this, but if you think it will, then I will post it.  Just remember, a rookie wrote it.

  Thanks,
