I am sorry if this has been answered before, but I am looking for a way to save all of the macros and values to a text file. Anybody know how to do this?

Which macros? In what format? Macros.Save will save in XML format.

We are trying to save all macros at the start of a build for later debugging if need be. Format really does not mater, XML will work just fine. I am trying to figure out how to use the Macro.Save currently.

To save all macros (highest precedence for different types with same name):

Code:

vbld_AllMacros.Save "%TEMP%\All.macros"

To save a particular type of macros (i.e., Temporary):

Code:

Application.Macros(vbldMacroTemporary).Save "%TEMP%\Temp.macros"

Put the code in a Run Script step.
