Looping within a macro?

[zeemzee]

Hi,

Love the macro. Just bought it two weeks ago. I was hoping i could get some help.

I want the macro to click in, do a series of 5 keystrokes looped 20 times, then click out THEN wait an hour and do it all again. 

I tried just copy and pasting the keystrokes after the initial keystrokes in note pad but I think there might be a time aspect to it 
because it just didn't work. Keystroked the wrong stuff. Just a disaster.  The first 5 keystrokes worked like a charm but as you can 
see I just copied it three times. When it came to the 3 other sets, it didn't do it right. I'm also assuming I could just change run
action to Minutes put to 60 or maybe Seconds and put to (whatever amount of seconds is in 1 hour)

Worse case scenario, I could just record the whole thing myself, but I was hoping there was a way to loop the 5 keystrokes.

Hello. Sorry for the short answer but I’m on a cell phone. What you need is a “for” loop.

Yep a FOR LOOP (www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#for) is what you need for this.

Below in the code block is the basic structure of a counting for loop. This for loop runs through 5 times bringing up a message prompt.
1 | FOR | I | = | 0 TO 5  | NEXT
2 | RUN ACTION | MESSAGE PROMPT | %i%::FOR LOOP %I%::1
3 | FOR | NEXT

Here's a simple example:
