Word Basic?
Here's one for the "old timers":
I don't write many scripts but can usually blunder my way thru if I can find an example similar to what I want to do. I am learning disabled due to a concussion several years back, but it's one of those "if I knew it before, I still know it" kind of things; it's only more recent events I have trouble with. I'm setting up an input dialog box for a fax cover sheet; pretty simple as scripts go, and remembered someI made years ago that I finally managed to locate inthe archives, and pulled it up. I thought it was written in VB, but it turns out it's in "Word Basic". No idea what rev of Word I used but the file dates were 1998 vintage. They work fine in XP Pro, and I'm getting what I want it to do in the get/put areas, which is about all they are. But here's my question, since Windows Help and Google don't seem to be very helpful: Are Word Basic commands the same as/similar to, VB such that I can use VB Help, commands, etc., to go ahead and modify and add to these Word Basic scripts to do things I don't yet know how to do? Pro-gress, in other words g. Or, will Word Basic sripts byte me in the arse in ways I don't expect when trying to TS them in VB scripting? Thanks to all relevant responders in advance, Pop` |
