Problems combining Macro with Journal.

Problems combining Macro with Journal.

Problems combining Macro with Journal.

(OP)
Hello, I would like to combine a macro with a Journal.

I’ve a macro and now I created a journal to export drawings to PDF, I need that this journal first call and execute the macro and then exporting to PDF.
The problem is the macro doesn’t execute until the journals ends.

What can I do to make the macro run before the rest of the Journal?

Thanks in advance.

RE: Problems combining Macro with Journal.

Journals and macros don't mix especially well. It might be more work, but you'll probably save yourself a few headaches if you rework your journal (or macro) to do all the work.

Yes I know, but I haven't other choice. The macro, works with a compiled dll file and I can't rework my journal for introduce it.

My only solution is to call this macro from the journal but occur the problem that I previously commented.

Can you think of some way to make it work properly?

Thank you very much for your help.
