Infocenter

Prompt

This window appears when you record and when you play a macro.

Recording
The window is asking you to type whatever information will allow the host application to continue. For example, if the application needs your user id, type it now and click OK. The text will not be entered on the screen when you play the macro, nor will it be saved in the macro. It's used as a placeholder to tell the macro that something must be typed at this point during playback. For example, if the application needs your user id, type it now and click OK. You cannot continue recording until you type the necessary information.

Playback
Type the appropriate information.
