Thanks Pete, this seems to be working as of now with no ill effects. I spent a couple hours last night just trapping that one switch, writing down the variable, and then restarting the simulator. After about 100 or so cycles I discovered that the two bytes at offset 188bf0 seem to stay within a set range, 8b10 through 8b18. It also seems that 8b11, 8b13, and 8b15 are excluded as I never saw them used. Not sure if that is any kind of help to you. Ill run a couple of flights with this later tonight and check in with you later. Thanks for all the help

Ok Pete, I have zipped up that GAU file and its in the mail. What other alternatives if any, do I have to map functions to a single button with FSUIPC? There is no key command for those buttons, so Im thinking I am pretty much out of luck. Thanks for looking into this.

I am using 3.98a I was under the impression that 4.60 was for Flight Sim X users, I am running FS9 as previously stated. Yes I tested the macros when I made them, they worked at the time of the test. However, according to the log, one of the functions was not performed "because offset is not valid" 145767 JoystickValues PCnum=1, dwCount=6, data[2]={00000000 00000020} 145767 Button changed: bRef=1, Joy=0, Btn=11, Pressed 145767 [buttons.PMDG MD-11 GE CONTINENTAL] 4=P1000,11,CM6:22,0 145767 Macro: mouse action="PMDG_MD11.GAU":X188bf0*X8b12,31 145767 not executed because offset is not valid 145767 Macro: mouse action="PMDG_MD11.GAU":X188c10*X8b90,31 145767 Macro: mouse action="PMDG_MD11.GAU":X188c30*X8b90,31 This did not show up until after a restart of FS9. What ini file are you referring to?

Im using the most up to date version of FSUIPC for FS9 with the PMDG MD-11. I created a macro for the 3 IRS knobs to turn to align when I pushed a certain key. It seemed to work just fine and all three turned when I tested the switch, however after shutting down FS9 and restarting, only two of the knobs turn to align when I hit the assigned key. I remade the macro, naming it something different, just to weed out user error, but had the same effect. What could I be doing wrong?
