QBI Itemized List in ATX

Recommended Posts

I wrote a script after doing a couple manually.

Here's the AutoHotkey text in case you're interested:

:*:qbi=::
Send, ^i
sleep, 750
Send, QBI CALCULATION
Send, !a !a !a
Send, {TAB 7}
Send, SCH C INCOME{DOWN}LESS HALF SE TAX{DOWN}LESS SE HEALTH INSURANCE{DOWN}LESS RELATED RETIREMENT CONTRIBUTIONS
Send {TAB}{UP 3}
return


I didn't test if the sleep was necessary, but I thought it couldn't hurt to wait 3/4 of a second. ^ is Ctrl, ! is Alt and the rest is pretty straightforward. The first line is just AutoHotkey's syntax. I chose qbi plus an = sign as the trigger. I could've just used q= or something else.

I'm not overly familiar with writing scripts but anything to save time is well worth the learning curve.  

When I first started, I made attempts that weren't working, so I posted them on AutoHotkey forums and the related reddit, and strangers were more than willing to help me fix my code. Some of the code I copied from them, I still don't fully understand, but basic scripts like having je= type my (Joe's) email address, ad= typing my street address are so easy to write and great time savers and eliminate typos as well.

Last year I wrote one to type my ATX password. I don't even know what my password is anymore, but I can look it up in my script, or just run in it notepad.
