Microsoft Script Debugger

[Mukherjee]

Hello !

   I have DIAdem11.0 & Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 express edition. I want to debug the .vbs scripts, which is unfortunately not possible. Please let me know why this is so (the help says that if script debugger is there, then it should be possible to use the debug mode) and more importantly, how I can circumvent this situation.

  Es gibt ein paar diskussions über dieses Thema hier. Aber mein Deutsche ist leider nicht gut. Deshalb habe ich nur etwas verstanden. Ist eine Übersetzung auf Englisch möglich?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / With warm regards,

Saurav Mukherjee

Hi Saurav Mukherjee,

The debugger that you have to download is the Microsoft VBScript debugger, not the Microsoft Visual C++ debugger.  The VBScript debugger is a very small installation that you can get from Microsoft for free.  Microsoft does not allow other products (i.e. DIAdem) to install their VBScript debugger.

Hello Saurav,

The debugger can be found here (well, at least until Microsoft decides to change the link again):

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2f465be0-94fd-4569-b3c4-dffdf19ccd99&DisplayLang=en#AdditionalInfo

The version of the debugger is 6,0,0,8424 if you check in the "DIAdem Help - About - Script Engine" menu.

Dear Otmar & Brad,

       Thanks for your help. However I'm not able to find this script debugger in MS website. :mansad: Could you attach the same in your reply?

       Thanks in advance,

With warm regards,

Saurav

Hi Saurav,

I'm curious, are you unable to connect to the URL that Otmar posted, or are you unable to use that Microsoft web site to download the VBScript debugger?  I rather doubt that I'm authorized to post an installer from Microsoft in this forum that they have specifically protected behind an authentic Windows check at their web site.

I'm using WinXP Professional version. The authenticity check is successfully done. After it a page opens with the information that the download I'm looking for is unfortunately not available!!

Hello Saurav!

You have the same OS. This is not the reason for the problem. Can you try to download on another machine?
