SUMMARY
=======

This article describes the procedure for obtaining the Script control.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The Script control provides a simple way for your application to host a
scripting environment. Supported scripting languages are VBScript,
JavaScript, and any other compliant scripting language that will work with
the Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser.

You can download the script control from the following Web site:

   http://www.microsoft.com/scripting/scriptcontrol/default.htm

This page also provides a link to documentation on how to use the control.
The file name you will receive is sct10en.exe.

NOTE: Registration is required before downloading this control.

Using the Script Control
------------------------

The script control installs both as an ActiveX control that you can place
on a form and as an ActiveX server that you can instantiate in code.

To make the control available to your project, click on the Projects Menu
and select Components. This also makes the ActiveX server available.

To make just the ActiveX server available, click on the Projects Menu and
select References.
