Specifying, editing, and running scripts

When you select a script in the tree, a text editor displays the contents of the script in the data section. you may edit the script. You are prompted to save the changes, when you select another object in the tree. To run a script, select the command on the shortcut menu of the script.

Note: When you run a VBScript or a JavaScript using the shortcut menu command , not only the global commands and function calls are executed but also the first encapsulated procedure (sub or function) of the script.

When you run this example of a VBScript, the message This is a test. is displayed, whereas the message Hello World! is not displayed:


Sub Main()
Test
End Sub

Public Sub Test() 
MsgBox "This is a test."
End Sub 
Public Sub World() 
MsgBox "Hello World!" 
End Sub
