I have a file which has following variables.
Dim apple(10)
apple(0)= "banana"
apple(1)= "2 banana"
apple(2)= "3 banana"
and these variables are in script/test/test.vbs
Now i have another file which has following
MSGBOX apple(0)
MSGBOX apple(1)
which is in script/main.vbs
how to make these possible?
For .HTA/.HTML/.WSF don't try to re-invent the wheel but use the src attribute of the script tag.
For plain .VBS use ExecuteGlobal as demonstrated here:
Dim gsLibDir : gsLibDir = "M:\lib\kurs0705\"
Dim goFS : Set goFS = CreateObject( "Scripting.FileSystemObject" )
ExecuteGlobal goFS.OpenTextFile( gsLibDir & "BaseLib.vbs" ).ReadAll()
In either case put the code to be re-used into the included file; don't waste work on fancy Include Subs/Functions that provide nothing more than a one-liner.
Yes it is possible. A little additional work needs to go into including the external file. I based the work below on this article.
Contents of test.vbs file
Sub CustomInclude(file)
Dim fso, f
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fso.OpenTextFile(file & ".vbs", 1)
str = f.ReadAll
f.Close
ExecuteGlobal str
End Sub
'Set variables here
Dim apple(10)
apple(0)= "banana"
apple(1)= "2 banana"
apple(2)= "3 banana"
' Now call subroutine to include my external file.
CustomInclude "../main" 'Use of relative folder structure
Contents of main.vbs
MSGBOX apple(0)
MSGBOX apple(1)
MSGBOX apple(2)
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") this IE is prompting user to use ActiveX component, which i dont want.. any suggestions ?If this is a webpage you can use an html include to make it work.. (usually stick it in the location you would want the content. (head tag or body tag etc...)
