first, you sure yer trying to make a macro, and not a plugin?
second, is it in the Macros directory?
third, go to tools, folder options, click the view tab, make sure "hide extensions for known file types" is not checked.

if you still have problems......then id say PEBKAC

1.) Open .txt document(The macro).
2.) File -> Save As...
3.) File Name: Ubermacro_01.mac
4.) Save As Type: All Files
5.) Click Save
6.) [CLICK HERE] if it worked for you.

What exactly does this have to do with the filename? You can copy all the stuff you want to and if you save the file to something wierd its not gonna work.

So.... Learn how to use your computer, then come back and try using MQ2.
