Code writing from macro

[nagyf]

When I used Personal Editor to edit source code
for dBase II and Pascal I made macros to
make structures
like
IF ... THEN

ELSE

END IF,

or

SELECT CASE ...

CASE

CASE

ELSE

END SELECT
I pushed ^I or ^S, the macro wrote the above
lines and empty lines between the the went back to the
IF line or SELECT line respectively.
How can I do a similar macro for Access Basic?
The quick and dirty solution that I use Persional Editor II again.
The Pascal If-then-else macro was:
def c-i = [key enter] 'IF THEN BEGIN' [key enter] 'END' [key enter] 'ELSE BEGIN' [key enter] 'END;' [up] [insert line] [up 3] [insert line]

I have NO clue what you are talking about.
Is the Access or Pascal? DougP, MCP

Macros don't work that way in Access. You're referring to a use of the word that would make sense in a word processor such as M/S Word, but has no parallel in Access. I suppose you could write some horribly complex routine using VBA that would call some features of Word to do that, but I think it would be overkill for such a relatively minor convenience.
