Andrey,

Users have complained in the past the macro code doesn't do anything
useful and I could never get it to anything useful either.  I sent out
message over a week ago about getting rid of the macro code.  No one
complained including you.  You should have spoke up so I didn't waste my
time removing it.  I'm curious exactly what it is you are using them for
because I cannot seem to record anything useful.
