i am creating a macro that starts when a window is created and active. however i can only get the macro to start with the active setting and not "!ca".
It always jumps to the top of all the windows and it won't trigger even if i have "wait" checked. but it works flawlessly when in is just set to active.
is there any more info i can give you to help?
thanks

The trigger works when message window is opened first time after Outlook starts. Then, when you close the window, it is not destroyed but only hidden. Then, when you open a message (possibly other), Outlook unhides the window.
out win("- Message (HTML) " "rctrl_renwnd32")
finds the same window when visible and when not.
Use "visible" trigger.
