View Full Version : Macro Error causes VBP to freeze

Not sure if anyone has seen this yet, but I just ran in to a bug/problem (caused by user error of course :) )...

I created a nested Macro, consisting of an aggregate of two other macros. I typo'd the second macro and missed the ending "%". When my script threw an error, I went to change it.

The auto-display mouse over also throws an error, freezing the VBP app (at least on the Win2K3 server I was using it on).

The way to fix this was to get the properties page up, and use the keyboard to add the missing "%" to the end. Like I said, I made my own problem... But if anyone else finds themselves freezing trying to fix a similar issue, this is why...

I wasn't able to reproduce this (I get the expected "Error parsing macros..." tooltip). Make sure you're on the latest version, and if it still occurs, post a sample project that can be used to reproduce the behavior.
