It's a VBScript parsing error, not a script error:

[quote]Error at line 18, position 49
Dlg.Control("edit1").SelectRange(0, -1)

Cannot use parentheses when calling a Sub (0x800a0414)[/quote]

In VBScript (for some strange reason) you can't use parentheses around the arguments unless you are capturing the return value from the function call. Change it as follows:

Dlg.Control("edit1").SelectRange 0, -1

VB, it's so weird! o)
You can use "call" in front of the line to make "regular" syntax work:

Call Dlg.Control("edit1").SelectRange( 0, -1)
