Do macros jump back to the initially calling code

[ERDrPC]

Quick question - I'm tackling a bigger programming issue. 

If I insert some of the code in a macro will the next step in the event return to the calling code fire automatically so that the next line runs after the macro has completed?  Or does completing the macro also complete the calling event?

It will return back and continue executing the programming in the calling event.  note that Macros run asynchronously, so when you execute a Macro, it will fire off that programming but then immediately continue to execute the rest of the programming in the calling event, without waiting for the Macro to "complete".  This can lead to unintended results...so be careful.

Thanks. That's what I needed. There is no "pause" or "resume" programming events I assume

Only delay xxxx time

Alternatively, you can fire the next line of programming in the macro, or create a separate macro, and fire that FROM the other macro

Like inception the movie

Or use a while loop (to pause code until a variable s changed at the end of the macro) but that requires a dealer.
