Hi Chip: You mentioned Visual Studio is a steep learning curve, that is a massive understatement me thinks and I am the biggest supporter of it on list. As for developing scripts in general, I believe your package is the best one out there from the little I understand of it. Not only does it sound like a killer app but it is free - something I am getting to appreciate recently looking into alternative screen readers - sweet features and advantages but sigh you pay dearly for them. Anyway, you and Rod have done some nice work lately so I thought I would just touch bases and say hi and congratulations on your recent efforts.

And always Rod, thanks for the kind words, as it's all any of us get for writing our apps. If anyone hasn't tried this, I have also included 4 (long) audio tutorials on how to develop VBScript apps using your VBA development environment built into your copy of MS Word, along with this app. They cover all the advantages that come with use of this method, and so all you have to do in order to first listen to the tutorials is to install the app, and look under the app's menu item for the audio tutorials choice. You could then decide if this is something you want to try or not. It's difficult to say if this app is aimed at the beginner or the advanced developer, as one of the advantages it gives you is that it automatically prompts you with all the possible properties or methods you could use each time you type the dot operator in a command line (so that you don't have to try and remember, or look up, all of them). I know it sounds like I'm tooting my own horn here, but I'm really trying to encourage beginning developers who may find it too daunting to develop an app because you have to keep track of all the objects with all of their properties and methods. You of course would get the same assistance if you developed in .net, but that itself is a steep learning curve.

I am not sure of the purpose of this floating window, but I now disable it when the app opens the Word VBA environment. * Moved the documentation into an HTML file which should be easier to navigate.
