The highest-level object in the automation interface is the ISWiProject object. The first thing you must do to access the interface is create this object. Then, you can use its objects, methods, and properties to modify your project.

Note:The examples provided in the Automation Objects subsections use Visual Basic sample code, not VBScript.
