Scripting error on output toggle

[petez69]

Hi ALL

I've used the code snippet provided by Ultra to toggle an output via a script.

Sub Main(ByVal parm As Object)
Dim strResults As String = ""
' Toggle Output 17
strResults = hs.plugin("UltraM1G").ControlOutput("017","Toggle","0")
If strResults.Length > 0 Then
Call hs.WriteLog("Error", strResults)
End If
End Sub

I put this into a text file and am calling this from an event. I get the following error:

6/10/2007 8:34:04 PM - Error - Running script, script run or compile error in file: Output017_toggle.txt1006:Expected ')' in line 1 More info: Expected ')'

Could someone please point out what I'm missing....

Many thanks..Peter

Shouldn't you be putting this into a .vb file?

Fuego... I've got no idea....Linux shell scripting, no issues... under windows... no idea !

The samples I provided are vb.net. The script file extension should be .vb

Hi Ultra

Ok, that works. What then happens when the extension is changed to .vb ? Is a different script engine called if the extension is different ?

Sorry I dont know much about windows scripting as such..if it were LInux shell, different story...

Thanks for your quick response....

Yes. .txt = VBScript engine, .vb = VB.Net engine.
