Why Basic?

User Acceptance

Microsoft has publicly committed itself to including VBA into all of the products included in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access, Mail, PowerPoint, etc.) . In addition Microsoft released VBA and VBScript. VBA is extremely expensive and is expected to take at least two man months to integrate into your application. VBScript is a mini version of VBA with flow of control, one variable type and little else (cannot call DLL's, no support for integer and double data types, does not support dialogs or forms of any kind, and embedding is difficult). If this is all you need this may be a free option for you. However, if you need full VBA power and you need it now in a supported product, Cypress Enable is not only the most widely used VBA engine available but it is royalty free and priced to sell to a large audience. 

Why Cypress Enable Basic?

Microsoft has announced widespread licensing of VBA and is giving away VBScript for free. What does this mean for Cypress Enable - Basic Scripting for Applications. VBScript is a limited version of VBA This means that it is severely limited in its capabilities. VBScript is much more difficult to embed and is limited in its scope with its target use being inside web pages. VBA on the other hand is very expensive, is very difficult to embed in a product and has a very large foot print and may be more than you want or need!.

Language Description

Cypress Enable supports a substantial subset of Visual Basic for Applications. In addition Enable supports Microsoft Word Dynamic Dialogs, Full OLE support, fully interacts with Dynamic HTML forms, and has a powerful API, that is easy to learn and easy to integrate. Through the Enable API you can share variables, objects, and functions with your application. Enable scripts can get and set properties and call methods or objects in your application. Callbacks can be registered so that your application can respond to compile and runtime events such as undefined variables, functions and data types. In addition Enable has the ability to save and load compiled scripts, supports UNICODE, and can handle huge scripts. All with a footprint of about 400k

Extending Enable

End-users can call functions that are embedded in DLL's or in the calling EXE. These functions must first be declared using the hidden but standard Declare Statement syntax. By building up a string containing the declare statements and appending it prior to executing the user's script, these functions will appear to be built into the Enable language and can be used on demand by your end users. New functions and subroutines can be added or redirected at runtime though Enable's powerful API.

Why Basic Scripting

1. Would you like to be able to customize your application without changing the underlying code? Would some of your end users like to add functionality to your application? This and much more is possible by adding Cypress Enable Basic Scripting for Applications to your application.

Using the VBA standard for scripting

2.

If you are currently using VBScript but need more power and flexibility Cypress Enable offers all of this and your customers won't have to learn anything new. In addition if you are already using VBSript or if you need a VBScript editor just drop Enable in without any source code changes and have a better more powerful VBA compatible language in place of VBSript. Or use the Enable editor to edit Enable Scripts or VBScript scripts.
