File Paths

Use this option to set the default file locations for a number of files used by Macro Express. Descriptions of the files are provided below.

Macro Express Explorer > Options > Preferences > File System > File Paths

Email Address Book

Specifies the path and name of the file that holds any email addresses stored by Macro Express. This option is provided so that network users can each have their own individual list of email addresses. If email addresses are common to all users, simply point each user to the same file.

Click on the folder icon to open the address book and view its contents.

Sent Email Log

The Sent Email Log field displays the path and name of the file that logs the mails sent via Macro Express. The email information will only be saved to this file if the Email Logging option has been set. Start a new log file at any time by changing the file name.

Click on the folder icon to open the sent email log and view the contents.

Default Macro Log folder

This specifies the path and name of the file that holds the macro logs created when using the Log Errors command. Start a new log file anytime by changing the file name. This option is provided so that network users can each have their own individual list of error messages. If error messages are common to all users, simply point each user to the same file.

Click on the folder icon to open the default error log folder and view the logs contained in the folder.

Crash Report folder

This specifies the path and folder where crash reports are saved. Crash reports are generated by an unexpected closing of the program. The details of the problem are saved to a file that begins with 'error' and ends with '.TX' in the folder specified here. The default path is the folder where the Macro Express program is installed.

Click on the folder icon to open the crash report folder and view the reports stored in that folder.

Temporary Capture file

Use the System Macro - Ctrl + Alt + Shift + T to capture a temporary macro. The temporary macro is stored in the file located in the path defined in this field.

Click on the folder icon to open the folder containing the temporary capture macro.
