Keystroke Macro

Hi,
Would anyone with better experience of using keystroke macros let me know if i am going about this the correct way.
I want to make a keystroke macro that will load cue's 1 thru 20 on master 10 and copy/update fixture information from one fixture group to another fixture group.
So after i start recording the macro
"Select choose button of Master 10
Cue 1 open
Group 99 copy fixture Group 100
Enter update"
Repeat for the remaining 19 cues...

Is it possible for keystroke macro to trigger another keystroke macro? don't have a console in front of me.

So after i start recording the Macro
"Select choose button of Master 10
Cue 1 open,Macro 1 enter(which would be the above macro)
Cue 2 open,Macro 1 enter
Repeat for remaining 18 cues

I know it was not possible to "copy" Macro command lines but has this
changed recently?

Regards C

    [QUOTE=cormacjack;60933]"F5 1 enter" which i think should fire macro 1 ?
    When i open the Macro to edit it is correct but when it runs i get
    "unit 1" coming into the command line.

    That is indeed the correct syntax.

    Sounds like your keyboard might not be in MAP mode for keyboard shortcuts to be enabled....check to the right of the command line and make sure you see "MAP" in blue text....if it says "Abc" in black text you need to press Pause/Break to toggle over to shortcut mode.

    Hope this helps. :)
