DataBook Objects

To create a script to control DataBook objects, you need to know which objects to use and the relationship between the objects. These objects are DataBook components converted to programmatic objects for use in scripts.

DataBook is limited to event processing. An event is a user-defined action or occurrence to which a DataBook script responds. All DataBook scripting events are enabled by default.
