Hello all, 

 

I'm trying to open the 'Data Merge' panel/window from .JS. 
How can I do that? 

 

Shall I use the CSInterface? And do what with that?

    I've used the following in my Data Merge scripts previously:

    app.menuActions.itemByID(108033).invoke();    
var ma = app.menuActions.itemByID ( 108035 );  //this is required before the script can start, or else ID throws an error.
ma.checked && ma.invoke();
    If the answer wasn't in my post, perhaps it might be on my blog at colecandoo!
