Debugging VBscript

FinalBuilder Discussion
1

I often use Run Script actions to do some VBScript.  However, it can be a bit painful to develop scripts because the Script Editor isn't an IDE.   What is the best way to delelop\debug script? 

Can Functions in VBScript be used in a given event tab (eg. OnExecute)?   I'm trying to use a Function at the moment but it errors with a compilation/syntax error on the function declaration 'Function FunctionName()' line. 

Thanks,

Clive

Hi Clive

You need either the Microsoft Script debugger :

Or Visual Studio (2002 or later) installed on the machine.

You may also need to enable script debugging in the FinalBuilder Options (under FinalBuilder\Script Options).
