How can I extract the running scripts name using PCOMM VBScript










1















First time posting so please forgive me if I miss something.



I'm trying to output the name of the running script (along with other variables) to a plain text file. I've been able to get everything else I need except for the Script Name. I've tried using WScript & Echo commands but they do not appear to function in my environment. These are PCOMM .mac files.



Thanks in advance



Here are some of things I've tried so far:



FilePath = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetAbsolutePathName(".")` 


<<< The above works for Filepath but does not include the macro name



FileName = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetFileName(".")
<<< The above just outputs the "."



Dim scriptName : scriptName = WScript.ScriptName


<<< The above gives error message: Variable is undefined: 'WScript'



Dim scriptName : WScript.Echo WScript.ScriptName


<<< The above gives error message: Variable is undefined: 'WScript'



Function GetName() 
Dim WshShell, objEnv

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objEnv = WshShell.Environment("Process")
GetName = objEnv("SCRIPTNAME")

End Function


<<< The above doesn't output anything. I used similar logic to successfully extract the HOMEPATH.

          I managed to figure this one out after all:



          REM Initialize the session
          sHandle = autECLConnMgr.autECLConnList(1).Handle

          REM Connect to the current session
          sHandle = autECLSession.Handle

          msgbox("Variable Check: " & ThisMacroName), vbOKOnly, "Validation check"
