Greetings,

I tried using the Macro Builder in the toolkit to create a macro that sends Ctrl+P to the foreground application.  The toolkit seems to build the macro just fine; I get all of the expected popup windows indicating that the macro has been built.  However, when I actually try to use the macro, I get unexpected results.  For example, when I speak the macro name in Word or Excel, they each open the Font dialogue window.  When I try it in my calendar software (Franklin Covey PlanPlus), the application crashes.  Obviously, if I use the keyboard to press Ctrl+P, all three applications open up the Print dialog box.  Anyone have any ideas what I need to do to get this to work?  I've built other key press macros and they're working as expected.  Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Here's how I completed the macro builder window after which I clicked the build button:

Thanks for your quick response.  I followed your suggestion and created two macros, "Print document" and " Print spreadsheet", each pointing to their specific application, namely Word and Excel.  For now I kept the macros simple, just a Ctrl+P sequence.  Unfortunately, the results were the same as when I created a single global command : (.  Both macros still continued to open the Font dialogue box.  I opened the WSR macro editor so that I could see the xml for the macro created using the Macro Builder in WSR toolkit.  I pasted the relevant lines for the "Print spreadsheet" macro below.  Also included the screen shot from the Toolkit Macro Builder.  Any other ideas?  Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks.

<command>
<appIsInForeground processName ="Excel.exe"/>
<listenFor>Print spreadsheet</listenFor>
<sendKeys>{{CTRL}}P</sendKeys>
</command>

This is the message I got when I clicked on the links. Help, please :).
