Chapter 12. Getting Started Using Scripts
As mentioned in the last chapter, 80 percent of the users who work with Microsoft InfoPath do so mainly by creating forms through the user interface with very little code. However, when it comes time to use code, and if you don't own Visual Studio .NET 2003, then you have to use Microsoft Scripting Technologies to automate your forms using code. Once you decide to use script, you need to decide which script language to use, Microsoft JScript or Microsoft VBScript.
Regardless which scripting language you decide to use, the natural editor to use is the Microsoft Script Editor provided by InfoPath for editing your script. This chapter discusses using the editor. In this chapter you will:
