VB vs VBscript
« on: August 27, 2016, 05:26:43 PM »
Hi All,
I have successfully learnt to write some simple scripts using M3's built in script
editor. If I understand correctly such scripts are written using Cypress Enable.

Is it possible to run a VB program from within M3?

For example call an M code, say M100, and have M100 launch a Windows Form Application
which might include file dialogs and similar. If it is possible can the same M100 generate
Gcode by code " <content derived from VB app>"?

I think you can do all of the things you suggest but keep in mind that you will be using Cypress Enable (commonly referred to as CB) which is just a subset of Visual Basic (VB) so your options may be severely limited.
