[VBA] what macros you think worth to make? thanks

oh, just found using map parts, /w refresh and delete+insert map files seems perform the same.

another idea:

node seeker: sometimes i moved the map, then i got a link to old.mmap#xxxxxx <--node's id and i dont know which node it means.

would be nice if one can know which node have what ID or vice versa.

thx

btw, just playing /w gpt4, it can help to debug programs users just wrote.

hey, just found may use gpt4 to help!

i would like to further improve my "copy text to all subtopics'note" macro,

i wanna check that there is NO existing same text before insert.

gpt4 teach me that i can use InStr to check it.

wonderful!

in the world of writing macro for mindmanager, this would be a wonderful tool!

i asked: in VBA, how do i check whether one text variable contains another text inside?

gpt4:

In VBA, you can use the `InStr` function to check if one text variable (substring) is present within another text variable (main string). The `InStr` function returns the position of the first occurrence of the substring within the main string. If the function returns 0, it means the substring is not present in the main string.

Here's an example:

```vba
Sub CheckSubstring()

Dim mainString As String
Dim substring As String
Dim position As Integer

mainString = "This is a sample text"
substring = "sample"

position = InStr(1, mainString, substring, vbTextCompare)

If position > 0 Then
MsgBox "The substring '" & substring & "' is present in the main string at position " & position & "."
Else
MsgBox "The substring '" & substring & "' is not present in the main string."
End If

End Sub
```

In this example, `InStr` function starts searching from the first character of `mainString`, looking for the `substring`. The `vbTextCompare` argument makes the search case-insensitive. If you want the search to be case-sensitive, you can use `vbBinaryCompare` instead.

yes, the macro now wont add duplicate texts.

however, seems in winwrap, the InStr cant use the above line,

i have to remove the "1" and the "vbtextcompare" to work.

Crazy,

i asked gpt4 how can i compare 2 mindmaps,

it said:

1. manually

2. use macro

then it wrote me one!

but winwrap is not EXACTLY same as VBA,

so the code gpt4 gave me have to be fine tuned.

will try to report if useful

ideally, it will be like beyond compare 4.

in a new mindmap,

show what topics are

same,

differ

left orphan

right orphan

the 3rd macro to select all subtopics is also finishe.

crazy... why no one do so?

my life could have been saved.....
