Has anyone made a script to list all used probes (tips) in all programs?

Has anyone made a script to list all used probes (tips) in all programs (in a certain folder)? Technically it should be possible - get a list of all programs, open them one after another, scan for LOADPROBE and TIP commands, collect data.

But has anyone already done it? And is able to share?

  • Had a bit of 'free time' today, and got a Excel spreadsheet working that can list the names of all .PRG-files in a folder, for each of them list all (unique) probe files referenced, and for each probe file which (unique) tips are used (unsorted). Quick and dirty, and maybe not the best format yet for arbitrary data massaging, but part of the way to the goal...

    Notes:

    Clicking Clear clears all data.
    Clicking Add will scan the given folder, open each program in PC-DMIS, scan for probes and tips and add them at the end of the current list. Scanning the same folder twice will add each entry twice!

    BEWARE! It can take a VERY long time to scan a folder with many part programs, I don't know how to stop it prematurely (except Task Manager), and everything might crash if you have any programs which can't load in PC-DMIS or have other problems giving dialog boxes in PC-DMIS.
