New Alert Engine doesnt allow internal vb script

bripage

I am using the new Orion Alert Engine and trying to create some alerts. What I am trying to do is to have the Alert Action be that Orion runs a vb script that send me and email with a dynamic body.

What I mean by a dynamic body and iformation is that I want to use the macros supported by Orion to input the Node ID and status inforation into the emails subject and body. I can get the VB script to run by telling the alert action to run an EXTERNAL VB script.

The vb script is as follows:


Set objMessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
objMessage.Subject = "Alert Test
objMessage.From = "TEST1"
objMessage.To = "test@test.com"
objMessage.TextBody = "This is some sample message text."

'==This section provides the configuration information for the remote SMTP server.
'==Normally you will only change the server name or IP.
objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
("">schemas.microsoft.com/.../sendusing") = 2

'Name or IP of Remote SMTP Server
objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
("">schemas.microsoft.com/.../smtpserver") = "mail.test.com"

'Server port (typically 25)
objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _
("">schemas.microsoft.com/.../smtpserverport") = 25

objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Update

'==End remote SMTP server configuration section==

objMessage.Send



I have tried inputin the above script into the field for creating a custom INTERNAL vb script within orion. However, when I do this, I cannot click the "OK" button and save the script and what not. Also, If I put the macros that Orion supports in my External script, the information is not inported and then dynamically changed depending on the current device and status (this I expected).

What I want to know is why I cant add my script to the "run internal script" feild and save it. As well as Why couldnt I add my macros to my script once I had successfully made it an Internal VB script? I need this becuase I do not want to have to create 50gazillion scripts for each device and possible state.
