You can activate an object within the current info window or dialog, or outside it. To call a generic method such as MessageInformation() you can skip object selection.
To select an object to activate within the current info window or dialog:
| 1. | In the Object Activator, expand appropriate nodes in the Object Browser tree view. The Object Browser is the top-left pane of the Object Activator. |
| 2. | When you reach the object you want to activate, place the cursor on it. |
| The Object Browser tree view also displays properties that return a complex object rather than a string value. Examples of such a property are the activeDocument of a text editor, or the activeWindow of an application. This enables you to navigate directly to those properties without using the Property tab page of the Method List. |
| 3. | If you want to refer to the current value of the selected object (e.g. a text box value), you do not need to select a method. Otherwise, continue by selecting one of the methods or properties exposed by the object. |
