Hotkey to run once

[f901]

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, I did search but all I could find were macros alot more complex than what I am capable of understanding and need.

Basically I need to be able to run my macro once when I hit a hotkey.

This is my macro, I need to be able to run this macro once when I hit a key on the keyboard.Thanks in advance,

CODE

Opt("WinWaitDelay",100)

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4)

Opt("WinDetectHiddenText",1)

Opt("MouseCoordMode",0)

WinWait("Welcome to Rediffmail: - Opera","")

If Not WinActive("Welcome to Rediffmail: - Opera","") Then WinActivate("Welcome to Rediffmail: - Opera","")

WinWaitActive("Welcome to Rediffmail: - Opera","")

Send("{ALTDOWN}{TAB}{ALTUP}")

WinWait("BP (461).txt - Notepad","")

If Not WinActive("BP (461).txt - Notepad","") Then WinActivate("BP (461).txt - Notepad","")

WinWaitActive("BP (461).txt - Notepad","")

Sounds like you want to associate this macro with a windows hotkey? AutoIt knows about hotkeys, but needs to be running to "see" the keypress...

I encounted problems with the HotKeySet function before with the macro going into a loop, but I got that sorted by adding sleep(100) at the end of the macro.So problem sorted
