The VBScript Functions window, a code generating tool, eases the coding process two ways:

It lists the VBScript components available (e.g., constants, operators, and functions, CAPTUREit objects).
-
It facilitates the writing of syntactically correct code.
-
Double-click the Functions folder. Another set of folders appears. In this example, Text functions have been selected. Double-click the Text folder. A list of text functions appears in the right pane.
-
Double-click a function to add it to your code in the VBScript window. In this example, Left is selected. Left appears in the code main window.
