CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This application proves you don't need to add features to trump the competition. Journal Macro doesn't do anything its competitors don't, but its well-designed interface and solid help file distinguish it from the common herd. Similar to its competitors, Journal Macro automates basic tasks such as typing, moving the cursor, handling windows, launching a program, or opening a Web page (though it can't dial a modem or download a file). However, unlike most, Journal Macro has an application window that's powerful and compact, if a tad cryptic. Luckily, the program comes with five tutorial macros that make everything clear. Users can activate shortcuts through program-specific hot keys, text aliases, and scripts. The program doesn't support conditional scripting, however. Journal Macro won t satisfy the most demanding users, but it provides everything most people need to automate their workflow.Publisher's description

Version: Journal Macro 1.84
Pros: Clean looking console, looks easy and straight forward to use.
Cons: This product will EITHER let you create "Script Based Macro" or Record your keystrokes. All the other products I have reviewed, let the user start with a keystroke recorder, then switch to an editor to perform the final tweaks. This production lacks that functionality.
I have a desktop application that progresses from a summary form to a detail form. The application stops working after the opening of the detail form(in Keystroke Record Mode).
I think some of the competitors have a more reliable and flexible product.

"Great program, very powerful!"
Pros: LOTS of control. You can control the way it is played back. You can even edit a macro after it is recorded. Very nice
Cons: Not much.
