What are macros, how do I make them, and what are they used for?
A macro is a list of ChemStation commands or instructions that are stored together in a text file that you most likely create with the Windows NotePad program. There are many ways to load this macro into the ChemStation memory environment so you can run or execute it. Macros are useful for automating tasks that you find yourself repeating over and over again that otherwise force you to use many mouse clicks, menu selections, and typed entries into dialog boxes. Macros are widely used to perform custom actions such as printing a unique report or interfacing with other Windows programs.
