RE: script files

Depending on the length and complexity of the script file, you can create a customized tool bar button to execute the script file (macro), or create the file in an ASCII editor and save it with a .scr extension and load it by typing script.

RE: script files

Yes -
To your 1st question.
(Do I save the file with an extension "*.SCR"?)

Anywhere you want -
To the next question
(Where do I save it?)

As for running it ....
Go to the pull down "TOOLS" > "RUN SCRIPT"
This should pull up a browser ....
Then just point to it .... highlight it ... and run it.

If it doesn't run ...
Are you somehow associating the script to a "BUTTON"?
Or What?
