While the code wizards make it easy to generate the most frequently used functions (like showing messages, open web pages, popping up menus, and over a dozen other things), if you want to write code, the AtrixwarePowerScript language (which uses Visual Basic syntax) is extremely powerful yet easy to use - if you are familiar with VBA for Microsoft Office, AtrixwarePowerScript will seem familiar.
