Dial-Up Scripting Tool Dialog Box

This dialog box enables you to associate a script file with a specific connection.

Double-clicking a connection icon in Program Manager starts a connection. If you associate a script file with that connection, the script file tells your computer what type of connection to use (such as PPP) and what user information to send when making a connection. If you don't associate a script file with a connection, you need to know the connection type and user information and enter it manually.

Your Internet service provider (ISP) usually provides you with a script file that is either ready to run with your specific user information or that comes with instructions on how to edit the script file so that it contains this information. If you use more than one ISP, or you need several different connections, you can create multiple connections, each with a different script.

Connections

Select the connection that you want to associate with a script file. To turn off scripting for the selected connection, delete the script file name in the File Name box.

File Name

Type or select the script file name that you want to associate with the selected connection. To turn off scripting for the selected connection, delete the script file name.
