Commands
Common to Several Programs: Open, Save As, Find, Replace and Font
The Open, Save As, Find, Font and Replace windows
are common elements of several different programs, and the following macros
work in those windows in the various programs. Say "Open File,"
"Save As," "Please Find," "Please Replace" and "Font
Size/Style/Type" to get to these windows from one of these programs.
In addition, you can say "Go (Open In) <LookinDrivesFiles>,"
or "Save As <LookinDrivesFiles>" from any of Open or Save
As programs to save the step of saying "Open File" or "Save
As" first.
Word, Notepad, WordPad, NatSpeak, Netscape, Eudora, Cute HTML, Dreamweaver,
Fusion, Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, and Quick View -- Open:
Note: Word
has a more extensive list of Open macros in addition to this common list.
Those macros are listed in the word section. Quick View's group is "Select
a File" rather than "Open." These macros work in Paint Shop Pro's "Open"
window and also its similar "Batch Conversion" window, which opens with
the command "Batch Conversion." They also work in Dreamweaver's "Select
Image Source" window, which opens with the command "Insert Image."
Look In
Go (Look) Back/Next/Forward ["Go
Back" goes back to the place you were last. The following "Back Folder"
macros go back to the parent folder of the file or folder you are on.]
Back (Back to) (Go) Folder
Back (Back to) (Go) Folder 1-10
File Name/Type/All/Text/Word
Show List/Details [WordPad
and Word only.]
Show Properties/Preview *
[Word only.]
Open/Cancel Two (Both) [Netscape
only. This simply clicks two Open or Cancel buttons because you have to
go through two layers of Open windows when you are opening a local file
in Netscape.]
Go (Look In) <LookinDrivesFiles> [This
takes you directly to a category of files.]
Look in Drives Files:
A Drive/C Drive/D Drive/E Drive/F Drive/G Drive/H Drive/I Drive/CD (CD
Drive)/Zip (Zip Drive)/Desktop/Download/My Computer/My Documents/My Images/My
Data/My Common/Program Files/Network/Kim/Eric/Kim common/Eric common/TRN
Images/Story Media/Scriven Media/Site Graphics...
Note: the last few files are very specific to my computer. You will probably
want to delete some of these and add some of your own. To change these
files, use the Windows Explorer macro " Add Go To <Open
Programs>." See the Windows Explorer section for a full explanation
of this macro.
Open <Folder> [This
selects the folder of your choice and presses Enter. The following macro
does the same, then continues another level down to a subfolder of your
choice under the folder of your choice. Note that this is a simpler macro
then the above "Go" macro, which allows you to go directly to any file
from any place. This macro will select the folder of your choice only
if it exists on the screen you are on.]
Open <Folder> <Subfolder> [Word,
WordPad, Notepad and NatSpeak only.]
Add/Show Open Folder/Subfolder [This
allows you to look at or add to the My Documents Folder or My Documents
Subfolder list. Note that these lists are of my folders and subfolders.
You can use this macro to delete these and add your own. Note: you must
change the Folder and Subfolder lists separately for separate programs.
This allows main different sets of folders and subfolders for different
programs.]
Word,
Notepad, WordPad, NatSpeak, Netscape, Cute HTML, Dreamweaver, Fusion,
Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Quick View, and Windows Explorer -- Save As:
Note: Netscape's
group is "Save Bookmarks" rather than "Save As." Quick View's group is
"Save Copy."

Back (Back to) (Go) Folder
Back (Back to) (Go) Folder 1-10
Word, Notepad, WordPad, NatSpeak, Dreamweaver, Netscape and Internet Explorer
-- Find: Note:
The Windows Explorer Find window has its own commands because it's more
complicated.
Find Next
(Again) (Please) (Now)/Another/Close [Next,
Again, Please, and Now are just four different ways to say "Find Next."
"Find Another" combines Find Next with closing the Find window. Keep in
mind there is also a global command "Find Another," which finds the next
instance of the last thing you typed in the find window, then closes the
window. "Find Close" combines "Find Next" and "Close".
Note that you can use this command, then use the "Find Next"
command that works in the programs to find words without having the Find
window open all the time.]
Find What
Match Case/Whole
Find 1-10
Find Up/Down [Word,
Notepad, Netscape and Internet Explorer only.]
Find Format/Special/More [Word
only.]
Find Page/Line 1-100 [Word
only.]

Okay Both (Cancel) [This command clicks
both OK and Cancel in the Find and Replace Windows. This speeds up getting
out of Find or Replace when you are done.]

Find (Please Find)/Replace
(Please Replace) 1-20
