This is a child object of either the BatchControlDialog (see BatchControlDialog Object) or PromptingControlDialog (see PromptingControlDialog Object) object. Access this object is via the Line method of either those two objects. This object is used to manipulate one of the prompts when displaying a prompting control window.
The order in which the prompt's lines occur depends on the order of the prompting document controls. They are generally in order of batch header, image and document set document controls. Within each record, only the prompting control is added to the array of PromptingControlLine objects. Document controls based on system variables are not shown. This object is only valid during the OnBatchControl or OnPromptingControl events (see VBScript Events).
