This little tool will allow you to control modifiers of selected object without accessing the command panel especially when it's active Expert Mode. Tooltip on the image below shows list of actions.

Additional Info: 

Basic usage and list of actions:

List of actions ( LABEL ):
When an object is selected its name will appear in the label.
[ LMB ] >>> Press "Left Mouse Button" on label and move to change form position.
[ MMB ] >>> Press "Middle Mouse Button" on label to select base object.
[ RMB ] >>> Press "Right Mouse Button" on label to open context menu with list of all assigned modifiers. Menu Checkboxes shows whether the modifiers are enabled.

List of actions ( CONTEXT MENU ):
[ LMB ] >>> Press LMB on the context menu item to select named modifier.
[ MMB ] >>> Pressing MMB on the context menu item will enable or disable named modifier.
[ RMB ] >>> Press RMB on the context menu item to remove named modifier from selected object.

Close this tool by pressing "Red" button or place over it to see the tooltip.

Original script is not macroscript.
I use same version of max (extension and sp3) and not have any problem.
Try to use regular *.ms version. I personaly not like macros for scripts but only for some functions and commands.
For managing and runing scripts you can try ScriptRun tool
