Hi,

I have a VB script that reads a log file ,based on the results returned by my VB script I would like to set a VALUE of a PREDEFINED MACRO from within my vb script.

Is there a way to achieve this using script?


TIA

From a Run Script action, use something like this:

Application.Macros(vbldMacroTemporary).Add "MACRO_NAME", "macro value"

http://www.visualbuild.com/Manual/macrosproperty.htm

If the VBScript code is external to VBP (i.e., a .vbs file), you would need to instantiate the object model and store in a project (loading the appropriate .bld file first) or global macro.
