Hi Corey, Either version of Word, and I've been using 2003 but believe 2007 is exactly similar in this respect, have a feature built-in that you've never seen. This feature is a VBA integrated development environment which is very similar to the way VBSEdit works, but it's slicker, smoother, has a few more features.
VBA and VBScript are nearly identical languages, so what my script does is to let you convert any vbs file you have to VBA and imports it into this Word VBA environment. it then lets you use all the features of the environment, including code auto completion and the object browser, to develop your script. when you're done, you choose a "save as VBS" hotkey, and it converts your script back to a .vbs file and saves it in the WindowEyes folder where the scripts are stored. You can download the MS Office script and read the help which comes with it for a better overview of all it's features, and this is why we're have a short session tomorrow with TeamTalk; to get everyone who is interested familiarized with the process of using the Word VBA environment for your VBScript development. hth, Chip -----Original Message----- From: Corey Knapp [mailto:core...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, March 26, 2010 9:55 PM To: gw-scripting@gwmicro.com Subject: RE: VbsEdit Hi Chip, Can you please explain how your script is different I have office 2003 and 2007 what version would you recommend that I use.

I have to say it's not nearly as friendly or as useful as the VBA environment I have made use of in my MS Office script, but then, not everyone owns MS Word. If you don't, this VBSEdit could be better than nothing; I'm not sure, as you do have to add extra stuff to all your object model references in order to use it's auto complete feature. It may be worth using without using auto complete; it does have an object browser (which I did not check out). I'll be discussing the MS Word VBA environment on Sunday's TeamTalk session at 2 pm, but when we're done, or as a running comparison, we can include VBSEdit if anyone wishes.

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks, Corey
