Yes, if you wrote a lot of scripts, you might have them share certain dialogs, and you could choose to put only one copy of each dialog in it's own xml file.
I have wondered about David's suggestion though: could their be a property associated with each script which is a list of xml files? if you specified those files just once, then pressing a hotkey similar to that for edit script, could bring up the list of xml files for that highlighted script, and allow you to choose one for editing. Might make a good scripting project if you could get the info on which script was highlighted at the moment in the script manager. not sure if it's possible or not.

I believe you could also have multiple XML files associated to a single script, although you usually wouldn't have much reason to. There are cases though. On 4/18/2010 5:36 PM, J.J.
