Hi Chip, Note the switch for Reflection for VB and that may need setting when inside the WE Script, that was my note. It was not concerning the GetObject first parm. I suggested it as a possible fix, not from the script end but the Reflection end. GetRef would be when running reflection, thus having a pointer to it to keep only that session open. As you have mentioned, and Aaron as well, the object for reflection does not exist until running, or created, thus the 2 formats already mentioned apply for each case. When reading Reflection notes it brought up a possibility that it is not looking at any registry settings and wants to be told if something has changed; not knowing how Jaws changes the environment verses WE. Reflection could have been the cause from the beginning. But having the WScript could result in the same conclusion/result as I have stated. I was just giving Jonathan something to experiment with, to see what Reflection is doing and it's settings file are those command line switches, which is a part of reflection, is to allow changing of Reflection default settings, and not for any getObject command. For when reading Jonathan's original posting, the only issue was the opening of a new session and not keeping the original session; new window opens up. Reflection seems to have issues there. I guess if I were to install Reflection and deal with R2Win issues, I could have experimented with it myself, but will just leave that up to Jonathan. The GetRef could be used to create a session of Reflection and just transport that pointer around as I had suggested. Then see what issues result from that. Bruce Subject: RE: GetObject syntax / function Bruce, Sorry, but there is no "path" associated for registry objects related to which VBS interpreter you use. When you're using GetObject() and CreateObject(), you're executing a program associated with a registry key, and the path to the program is specified inside the registry. GetRef() does not apply here, but only applies to a function or object which you've defined inside your VBS program. Chip
Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2014 7:22 AM Subject: GetObject syntax / function I am having issues reproducing a GetObject() command I am using in a JAWS script to work in WindowEyes. In JAWS GetObject(R"eflection.Session"). Note that in JAWS this takes just one argument. After invoking this command I can act directly with the scriptable objects of the current session. In VBS with WindowEyes the GetObject requires two parameters, where the second parameter appears to be equivalent to the parameter that JAWS uses. If I use a null string for the first parameter then Reflection creates a new hidden window. If I use the path of the Reflections settings file then I get a new session to the host. If I leave the first parameter completely blank, I get back an ActiveX error. What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for any hints.Best wishes, Jonathan --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast! Antivirus protection is active. http://www.avast.com
