There are many ways to generate CAMMaster scripts. You can utilize the built in “SAX Basic” editor to record, store and run macros (simple scripts). Those who are familiar with the Visual Basic programming language can utilize it to automate CAMMaster. Microsoft has been developing a newer software framework known as “.NET” (pronounced “dot net”). The .NET framework includes a new sophisticated Visual Basic programming language called Visual Basic.NET (or VB.NET for short). Unlike previous versions of Visual Basic, VB.NET is a very powerful object oriented language. Programs generated using VB.NET can run very quickly. This document provides a brief overview of how to automate CAMMaster using the Microsoft .NET framework. The examples shown in this document were created using the Professional edition of Visual Basic.NET, from within version 7.1 of Microsoft’s Visual Studio.NET. This document is not intended to be an exhaustive treatment of the subject. It is intended to give the user interested in scripting CAMMaster a starting point for further development.
