Most versions of Reflection have Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) as its
scripting language.  It also has an ActiveX interface that allows one to
control Reflection sessions with Visual Basic, C++ or C#.  All of this is
included with Reflection at no extra charge.  Therefore, it is entirely
possible to do what you want to do with software that is free to you at this
point.  However, there is that small matter of programming between you and
your goal.

We provide some dated examples of how to do this type of programming
