From this window, you can play back one, several, or all of thekeystrokes. For convenience, Recorder groups the individual keystrokes intological phrases. A phrase is a group of similar keystrokes, such as a seriesof cursor movements, or a group or menu commands.Special keystrokes appear in the standard Lotus macro format. For example,the down arrow key appears as {D}, the left arrow appears as {L}. Your Lotusmanuals contain a complete list of macro representations for special keys.When you display the Replay Control Window, the first phrase in the window isdisplayed in reverse video. Milestones (/File Save, /File Retrieve or/Worksheet Erase Yes) appear in bright video. You can use the PositioningKeys (listed at the bottom of the window) to select a different phrase, or toscroll the list.

The default for Time-Interval is 10--which means that yourworksheet is saved automatically every ten minutes. You can enter any valuefrom 0 (zero) to 30 minutes. A Time-Interval of zero disables AutoSave.Recorder can actually only perform an AutoSave when you are in Lotus READYmode. Therefore, Recorder will take the first opportunity of returning toLotus READY mode to perform the save once its count down clock has expired.Recover from System Failures /AutoSave Files Help Indexh - MakeMacro WindowThe MakeMacro Window displays the keystrokes that are currently in memory.From this window, you can create Lotus macros from one, several, or all of thekeystrokes.
