BasicMaker 2008 is a scripting language and environment that
lets you automate recurring tasks in TextMaker 2008 and PlanMaker
2008 through the use of macros.
BasicMaker is compatible with Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). It
allows you to write small scripts or programs that execute commands
in TextMaker and PlanMaker. If you have repetitive tasks in SoftMaker
Office that you wish to automate, BasicMaker is the tool for you.
Syntaxwise, BasicMaker is modeled after Visual Basic for Applications
(VBA), and its OLE Automation object model is a subset of Microsoft
Office's. If you already have experience in macro writing with
Microsoft Office, you'll be up to speed with SoftMaker Office macros
in no time at all.
Care for a small sample?

Print tm.ActiveDocument.FullName |
If this looks familiar to you, you are on your way to becoming a
proficient macro developer for SoftMaker Office.
On the other hand, if this looks a bit baffling, that's not a problem
either: A detailed electronic manual will introduce you to macro
programming with BasicMaker.
Note: If you wish to create scripts for SoftMaker Office in
other languages than BASIC, you can! TextMaker and PlanMaker can be
scripted from nearly all programming languages, such as Python, Perl,
Ruby, C++, and Borland Delphi. |
