All of my modules are on house code p.
In the old days, with active home and a cm11a, I was able to write macros to control modules on the p house code and store them in house code a, b, and c.
Now I am trying to make my active home pro work with a cm15a and have discovered that the only macros that try to run are stored in p.
The monitored house code is set to auto and the a,b,c and p buttons are checked but any macros not in p are totally ignored.
Is there some way that I can make this work or should I put all the macros in P and then move the switches and modules onto the other channels? If I am forced to do that my palm and television remotes will no longer work.
Maybe I should have stood in bed.

You are confusing "Transceived" HC with "Monitored" HC. The CM15A can only monitor one house code, unless you run everything from the computer.

You are correct. So does that mean that the only place I can store my macros is in P? Is there anything else I have messed up?

You can have macros on any of your house codes. However, you should make sure that whichever house code you use is checked in the "Transceived house Codes" list.

AND is the monitored HC, especially if you are using conditionals in "SmartMacro'.

From my experience, this only matters if you are using status of specific modules as a condition. In that case, whatever HC you use for the modules you want to monitor has to be selected as the "Monitored House Code."
In my case, my modules are on "C", and my macros are on "M".
I'm not using module status as a condition, but if I did, I would need to have "C" as the Monitored House Code.
