Please help/guide/or just do it; Basic script to open other basic scripts

norkamus
I am not providing a code sample, but at the end of this I hope one will exist. Ultimately I want a .BAS that opens a dialog that allows me to execute other .BAS files I have created. It'd be great if they can be assigned to buttons instead of a file selection dialog.

I want this functionality because the PC-DMIS toolbars don't work properly- they lose the icon leaving a blank toolbar- leaving me to guess what is what. With a .BAS like the one I have described I can assign just one user defined command and not care that it is a blank icon.

Is anyone versed enough in BASIC to help me with this?

  • I have not tried this. Won't this destroy all of my settings and toolbars and directories? I don't want to rock the PC-DMIS boat as most things currently work well...

    Don't want to go off topic...I'm still interested in the .BAS
     Chances are that your user settings are corrupted anyways. I would reset your user settings and recreate your customized toolbars. Then create a backup of the new toolbars using the Settings Editor. I always save these backup files with a date code because this will happen again and its easer to restore your toolbars then recreate them. Also, once you get your customize toolbars where you want them take a screen shot of your toolbars to make it easer to recreate them if your backup file doesn't work correctly.
