hello,
I have a problem to define a macro in the script window of Origin7.0.
In fact, when I type a macro, even the one of the tutorial :
1.From the Origin menu, select Window:Script Window.
2.Type the following:
def hello {
type -b "Hello World!!!";
}
3.Type the following into the Script window:
hello
Press ENTER

the answer is always : #Command Error!.

Could you tell me how I can define a macro and how I can use it?
Thank you.

Vincent

Hi Vincent,

Select (hi-light) all of the macro lines and then press Enter...

<start selection>
def hello {
type -b "Hello World!!!";
}
<end selection>
Press ENTER
