Edit a Macro

Use the Visual Basic Editor to edit InfoConnect macros.

You can open the Visual Basic editor using the Visual Basic command and browse the projects to locate the macro you want to edit. (See Create a Macro in the Visual Basic Editor.)

Or, use the following procedure to select a macro from a list of macros in your session and open the Visual Basic Editor directly in the code for the selected macro.
