Reply To: How to write a macro to batch validate multiple documents

[Derek Read]

This functionality is still experimental for implementing your own scripts but I'm attaching a demo that may give you what you are looking for.

To try it out unzip the file I'm attaching and place ValidateDocuments.js into the subfolder in your XMetaL Author Essential or XMetaL Author Enterprise installation here:
C:Program FilesXMetaL 7.0AuthorXMDKMFOServiceservicecustomScripts
– or –
C:Program FilesXMetaL 8.0AuthorXMDKMFOServiceservicecustomScripts

You will need to restart XMetaL Author to have it load. A new Cross-File Operation will then be available named “Validate Documents”.

I've tested this with XMetaL Author Enterprise 8.0.1.041. Please let me know if there are issues with your version.

We've taken a guess at what you want to display in the Results panel. Please provide feedback.
