in a convo type / then a box will come up look at it and choose your script.

Scripts will only show up there if the script developer chose to add a menu, some scripts may not require any configuration at all so they do not need a menu.
This doesnt mean the script isnt working, just that the developer has not added a menu to it for whatever reason.

although i know at least one of the scripts there should have a menu (Screenshot Sender). Try reinstalling the scripts that are not working to see if that fixes them

If the scripts don't show their menu in the Plus! context menu, then they also wont appear in the command list, as they aren't loaded.

Some of the scripts shown in his first screenshot definatly should have a context menu. Since this doesn't show up there is obviously something wrong with them.

@aunwit, what you could try to do is removing all scripts and reinstalling them. Although I somehow doubt this will fix it.

If it doesn't work, check out the debug window of the scripts and see if there are any error messages comming up.

i had problems with the keyflasher not working to scripts are stored in c:\program files\messenger plus\scripts
or where eva you installed plus if a script doesn't work and you don't want to fix it or don't know how to fix it just watch the forums and script dbs and wait for a newer version I think they're working on a fix for keyflasher.

when i clicked on the lil MPL icon in the convo window, the Script Debugging window came up with [with Screenshot Sender 4 selected]:
Function called: OnGetScriptMenu
Error: 'Language.Menu' is null or not an object.
       Line: 11. Code: -2146823281.
Function OnGetScriptMenu returned an error. Code: -2147352567


edit:
live notifier:
Script is starting
Script is now loaded and ready
Function called: OnEvent_Initialize
Error: ActiveX component can't create object.

There is no such thing as "a version of activex". ActiveX is a term used for certain kind of software components from Microsoft. It is a technology term, not a program.

The cause of those errors might be difficult to find since they can indicate all sort of things. eg (but certainly not limited to):

* You don't have the latest scripting engine (although I'm not even sure if with a previous scripting engine Plus! scripting is enabled at all)

* One or more references to components used in the DLL's used by those scripts are missing.

* One or more references to components used in the DLL's used by those scripts are refering to versions newer than the ones you have on your computer.

* You do not have the required permissions for the use of required libraries used in the DLL's used by those scripts.

* The ActiveX components used in those scripts aren't installed correctly or not at all.

* One of the dependencies of those scripts or its libraries are missing.

------------

possible things to try

* Update your Windows XP:
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
(make sure you have SP2 and all its fixes and updates; this requires a few revisits to the update site after each set of updates and after you rebooted your computer, untill no more updates are listed in the list).

* Install the latest scripting engine:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?F...-86EB-95A22B832CAA

* Reinstall and register the ActiveX components used by those scripts. Easiest done by reinstalling the scripts.

* Make sure you have full access and permission to run everything. AKA: be sure to have admin rights.
