Hi,

I'm trying to write a VBScript at the AfterAction section in the script editor. The script is:

Dim pos1  
pos1 = InStr(0, ".", "1.2.3.4")

When running the action I recevie the following error message:

Error Executing script : AfterAction  
Microsoft VBScript runtime error  
Invalid procedure call or argument: 'InStr'  
Line : 2  
Char : 3  
------------------------------------------------------  
Error in AfterScript : VBScript  
This Action did execute successfully however an error occurred in the AfterAction script.  
------------------------------------------------------

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,  
Tomer
