In Perceptive Content, you can use Microsoft Visual Basic scripting as a tool to extend functionality.
When creating an application plan, you can create, modify, and apply Visual Basic scripts to a property, custom property, or dictionary data element.
For example, if you have a dictionary element called Full Name with the value "Bruce Jones", you can create a script that reverses the first name and the last name to read "Jones, Bruce".
You can also create and apply a script to the Field1 property to remove all punctuation (that is, dashes) from a social security number. As a result, the Visual Basic script updates the social security number "123-45-6789" to the number "123456789."
When you add a script to an item or container property, the script runs prior to the context mapping. If you select the User Entry source option, however, Perceptive Content clears the script data from the property to allow for user entry of data.
