Working with Visual Basic for Applications

Using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), you can write scripts that provide security access and information. For example, you can use a script to determine the currently logged in operator and his or her security rights. You can also write scripts that let operators log into and out of iFIX. Such scripts let you customize the login process to your needs.

To learn how to write a script with iFIX security, refer to the Writing Scripts e-book. To learn about specific VBA methods that access the security system, refer to the iFIX Automation Reference file.
