  The CSV Buddy companion program CSV Buddy Messenger allows to set the value of various controls (text fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, etc.) in order to configure a task (like open file, edit columns, save or export file, etc.) and then trigger this task as if you were clicking on a button.
  
  Messages are commands sent to "CSV Buddy Messenger" from the command line or using a script file. The file "CSVBuddyMessenger-n_n-32-bit.exe" (found in the ZIP file) is distributed with version information in its name. It is recommended to rename it "CSVBuddyMessenger.exe" to avoid having to change your commands files when a new version of CSV Buddy Messenger is released. You can run this file from any folder, at your convenience.
  
  Before sending a message to CSV Buddy, make sure one (and only one) instance of CSB Buddy is running. Then, you can send single messages from the command line (or from the Windows "Run" command, a batch file, a context menu, etc.) like in the following example (adapt the path to your own configuration). The available messages are described in the documentation (see below). NOTE: You must enclose in double-quotes parameters that include spaces.
  
  C:\>"C:\Apps\CSV Buddy\CSVBuddyMessenger.exe" Set strFileToLoad "C:\myfile.csv"
  
  The documentation about scripting and CSV Buddy Messenger is here:
