What Is ScriptDialogs?

ScriptDialogs is a collection of dialog box building routines. It is meant to be used by scripts written for TPF/GI and other TPF Software products.

Most of the chapters in this manual comprise a tutorial that describes how to use ScriptDialogs in VBScript, JScript, and PerlScript.

The final chapter is a detailed reference to the objects and methods you can use to put ScriptDialogs to work for you.

New Progress Dialog Box
A new addition to this package is a progress dialog box — a dialog box that can display how much of an operation has completed or display an animation to indicate that your script is busy doing something. This new ProgressDialog is a separate dialog box from the other dialog box functionality in this package. The ProgressDialog is distributed with build 30803 or later of TPF/GI.

It's a Snap!
ScriptDialogs are a snap to use, so sit back and read through the tutorial. In a few minutes you'll be writing scripts that can ask questions and display information instead of just running quietly behind the scenes.
