MacroRunner for Excel
$9.95 - Datasoft Solutions

MacroRunner is a powerful Excel add-in that enables users to easily automate the process of running Excel macros. MacroRunner provides two methods for automation. One method involves the addition of a user defined function called RunMacro which can be inserted into a worksheet. The RunMacro function works by allowing you to run macros in response to whether a specified condition evaluates to true or false. The second method allows you to run macros in response to several workbook and worksheet related events. With MacroRunner you can take control of when your Excel macros run with no programming involved.

As mentioned above, the RunMacro function allows you to run macros based on whether a condition that you specify evaluates to true for false. The condition consists of comparing two values with a comparision operator (e.g. A1 > 5). You have a number of different options to choose from for each of the two values including a single cell range, a number value, text value, or a value that is returned from another function. You also have several different comparison operator options to choose from including ?Begins With? which allows you to specify what set of characters the first value should begin with (e.g A1 Begins With ?Bac?) . You have the option of running one macro if the condition evaluates to true and another macro if the condition evaluates to false. In addition to running macros, you can specify that the function returns a value depending on whether the condition evaluates to true or false.

The second method for automating macros is to assign a macro to run in response to an Excel related event. MacroRunner provides several events to choose from including when the workbook first opens. when the workbook closes, when a particular sheet is first activated, and when a particular sheet is deactivated by clicking on another sheet.

4IE iMacros Web Macro Recorder
$0 - iMacros WebSite Testing and Web Scraping

Automate your web browser. Record and replay repetitious work.

iMacros has many uses:

(1) Form Filler on Steroids and Password Manager

iMacros relieves the repetition of checking on the same sites every day, remembering passwords, and filling out web forms. iMacros is the only form filler that can autofill web forms that stretch over several pages. All information is stored in human-readable, plain text files that can be easily edited. Passwords are stored securely with 256-Bit AES encryption.

iMacros is a good alternative Solution to Enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO). Users memorize only one master password. iMacros remembers all the rest, and provides true automated logins (a better Single Sign-On).


(2) Web Automation

iMacros can also automate the download of pages (with or without images) and all kinds of images or files. In the other direction it can also automate the upload of data from a file to websites. You can use variables inside the macros, and import data from CSV files. It includes user agent switcher, PDF download and Flash, ad and image blocking functions.

The recorded macros can be combined and controlled with Javascript, so even very complex tasks can be scripted.

(3) Data extraction/Web Scraping/Web mining/Enterprise Data Mash-ups

Just the opposite of form filling. With the EXTRACT command you can read data from a website and export it to CSV files. iMacros includes full Unicode support and works with every language, including multi-byte languages such as Chinese.

(4) Web Testing

Web professionals use the iMacros add-on for functional, performace, and regression testing of web applications. With the built-in STOPWATCH command exact web page response times can be captured. iMacros also includes support for many AJAX elements.
