[amibroker] Automating Amibroker

["rsmith_den" <rls_jls@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I copied a wscript source code file from an earlier posting that used 
the automation features of Amibroker, and I tried to execute the same 
wscript file without success. I can automate MS Excel from an 
external app but I cannot do the same for Amibroker and I think the 
first line of code is where i fail, "Amibroker = new ActiveXObject
("Broker.Application");" . Am I missing a *.dll file somewhere ? In 
VB I usually have to add a reference to a *.tlb file or a local 
Active X object. Also is it possible to automate Amibroker from a VB 
app ? The Wscript file I tried to execute is typed as :

<job id="main">
	<script language="JScript">
		Amibroker = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");

		WScript.Echo( "loading database");
		try
		{ Amibroker.LoadDatabase("C:\\Program 
Files\\AmiBroker\\DataBid"); }

		catch ( e )
		{ WScript.Echo( "error loading" + e ); }
		
		WScript.Echo( "importing");
		try
		{ Amibroker.Import(0,"C:\Documents and 
Settings\Smith\My Documents\Ticker 
Data\AWA\Bid\AWA0811.txt", "C:\\Program 
Files\\AmiBroker\\Formats\\default.format"); }

		catch ( e )
		{ WScript.Echo( "error importing" ); }
		
		WScript.Echo( "refreshing");
		Amibroker.RefreshAll();
		
		WScript.Echo("saving");
		Amibroker.SaveDatabase();
		
		WScript.Echo( "done");

	</script>
	
</job>
