Editing ahx files

I don't have the instruction file yet but I tried this on copies of my AHX files.

I get the following error:  "Runtime Error '91': Object variable or With Block variable not set" when I open them with the program.

This doesn't happen on the two sample files that came with AHP but only contain sample macros.

I also get this error!
"Runtime Error '91': Object variable or With Block variable not set"
As soon as I try loading an ahx file!
I also found I could open a file if I had no macros which needed the iWitness, Myhouse or OnAlert Plug-ins so that may help narrow it down.
If I only had the SmartMacro plug-in utilized there was no problem loading the AHX file!

Thanks Pierre, great job!

Pierre's program works with my AHX file.  I have all the plugins but I am only using smart macros with no references to the iWitness, Myhouse or OnAlert Plug-ins.

Tuicemen, Oldtimer, does manually sorting using NotePad a copy of the AHX file that references the iWitness, Myhouse or OnAlert Plug-ins work?

Your comments are important
At this stage, bugs are normal
Everyone will edit AHX with EditAHX
Upgrades will coming soon

csnet thanks for hosting PierrePs program!
I haven't tested editing using note pad for one of the AHX files containing macros created with one of the other Plug-ins I just happened to notice that I could open and edit an old AHX file that I had used with only the SmartMacro Plug-in!

Nice Job so Far! You got a helpful from me, even with the minor bugs found!
I'll contine to play and see if I can narrow down whats causing the error.
It may only be only one plug-in that is messing things up!

csnet  ... I used Notepad to edit the placement of Rooms in the left pane of AHP.  I've been wanting to do that for some time.  Thanks for the encouragement to use Notepad.  I gave you a helpful.  Thanks.

csnet: using Notepad to sort an AHX file which has macros created with all Plug-ins is not a problem!

PierreP I can  create simple macros with Iwitness and On Alert then use your program to
edit the AHX file. The problem seems to be the web plug-in MyHouse. I added a simple macro which started the server then tested and received the error "Runtime Error '91': Object variable or With Block variable not set" hope this help narrow things down!

Great thanks for Tuicemen
He helped me by sending a file.
I found that the using of some special sign like "&" causes trouble in XML file.

The first bug is fixed.

Great work PierreP!  

Perhaps as users report what their doing (editing) with notepad and AHP you can add it to editahx!
Keep Up the great work!
I've added a link to your program as well at my Active Home Pro Addons page!
