Thanks for the reply Pete, apologies for the dumb questions, while FSUIPC does lots for me, I haven't done much with it myself. Yes of course the macro file 737PMDG items from the macro file were in there as soon as I tried to assign buttons. Don't know what happened with my text copy, I'd just smeared (selected) the text, copied with a Ctrl+C , opened a new .txt file on my desktop, yes notepad, and pasted the text in, and was also surprised to see it as a block of text, no carriage returns. Maybe (????) it had been created with line feeds, no carriage returns ??? No matter, I managed. ( Is Win7 64 Notepad any different to previous Notepads ?) Thanks again that should be enough info to be dangerous :)

Thanks very much for this work. I'll be trying to connect my opencockpits MCP..... then EFIS While I have a registered FSUIPC4 I've never used macro's before. Could you help me to get FSUIPC to read/eat the macro file. I've been reading the FSUIPC maual and advanced user guide but failed I'm afraid For starters I've copied the above text and pasted it into a text file I named 737PMDG.mcro and placed it in the fsx/modules folder, I had to put carriage returns in the text file to format it .. was tthat ok or not ? I have no other macro files in my /modules folder that I can see. TIA John
