Version 2.6g

• The "Disable Screen Saver" option now simply prevents a screen saver from going off if Macro Express is running and there are active timed macros. It does nothing to the Screen Saver setting in the Control Panel.

Version 2.6f

• Changed the method of determining if the caps lock key is on or off when a timed macro executes.

Version 2.6e

• Windows 98 changed the way a window is brought to the front of the screen. Instead of bringing a window to the front, it blinks the program's icon in the taskbar. This had numerous side effects in Keyboard Express such as not being able to use the "Activate Window" command, not being able to bring up Keyboard Express using the hot key to do so and having certain windows not have the proper focus. These will all now work properly in Windows 98.
  

• Bug Fix: If 2 repeat counters were used in the same repeat loop, the very last value of the second repeat counter would not be placed in the macro.

Version 2.6d

• Bug Fix: If the Caps Lock key was on when a Timed Macro executed, it was possible for lower case letters to be upper cased and upper case letters to be lower cased.

Version 2.6c

• Bug Fix: A serious bug was introduced with version 2.6b that prevented Hot Keys from activating macros in certain programs.

Version 2.6b

• Bug Fix: If Keyboard Express was minimized and a macro was run that had a "PAUSE" in it, then you could no longer minimize Keyboard Express after the macro was run.
  

• Bug Fix: Left Window key would not capture correctly.
  
• Bug Fix: The 12:XXam timed macros were being interpreted as 12 noon instead of 12 at night.
  
• Corrected problem that sometimes occurred with having Keyboard Express in the taskbar when it was hidden.
  
• Added new menu item under Tools that allows Keyboard Express to re-establish first looks at the keyboard.
  
• Adjusted the "Tutorial" in the help file to reflect a couple minor changes to the program.

Version 2.6a

• Bug Fix: If two or more of the same hot keys were defined via the "Specific Window"option, the activate/deactivate option would not always work properly for those hot keys.
  

• New "Keyboard Speed" option only worked with standard Alpha/Numeric keys. It now applies to all keys including arrow keys, page up, etc.

Version 2.6

• Added a "Keyboard Speed" option where a delay in milliseconds between each keystroke can be used.
  

• Added a incremental Repeat Counter.
  
• Added the ability to insert a Remark that is ignored during macro play back.
  
• Added option for disabling screen savers if timed macros are to be used. If a screen saver is running when a timed macro executes, the macro will not execute properly as focus cannot properly be given to a program when a screen saver is running.
  
• Bug Fix: Pause Window was not wrapping the pause text correctly.
