    Any advice on app scripting? I have a native C++ MFC application running on Windows. I'd like tech-savvy users to be able to write scripts to interact/control the app locally and/or remotely. I've looked into exposing OLE Automation interfaces, but am not sure thats the best way to go or how easy the remote piece will be for end users. I want the app to provide the scripting services in process and want to minimize complexity for users developing scripts to control the app locally or remotely. Anyway, just wondering what the latest thoughts are on the best way to approach this. Any suggestions?

      Your application may host the Windows Script Control [^]. :)

        How difficult is it to access this from a remote machine?

          I don't know. What exactly do you need to do? :)
