Dear Oliver
I figure you should be able to record the macro on one device and be finished with it even when you will receive password error message on that device because the password is not yet really changed. I figure the macro recording would not care about the error message after the new password is entered at the time of recording.
If somehow the method above is not possible/allowed, I would record the macho until the new password is typed in and stop the recording at that point without pressing enter or click OK. Then when the time comes in which the password is actually changed, I would play the macro and press enter or click OK to finish off the change.

Subject: Possible to record a macro without reflecting the changes instantly?
Hello,
We are about to change a lot of passwords for our handheld devices within IBM ACS and instead of doing it manually for each device, I thought it'd be a huge timesaver to create a macro for this. The problem is that the macro, while recording the steps, is instantly reflecting these changes, whereas I'd like to only reflect these changes when actually running the macro, not recording it. Is it possible to change or achieve this in a different way?
PS: The password will be the same for every device, so that is not a problem.
