Using the macro command browser

The macro command browser helps you insert macro product and programming commands in WordPerfect Office macros.

Product commands perform tasks that let you use WordPerfect Office features in macros. Many product commands require you to specify parameters and enumerations, which give the applications information about which options to use in dialog boxes and whether to hide or display certain features (for example, the ruler). You can use the macro command browser to specify the commands quickly.

WordPerfect Office note Using the macro command browser

 
You can also insert system variables with the macro command browser. System variables contain current system information, such as the current chart type or the default directory. In WordPerfect, system variables begin with a question mark.
 
A parameter that is displayed in bold is a required parameter. The macro will not compile or run without it.
