Ill be grateful for any help

Here you go, try this!
try (destroydialog test_button) catch ()
rollout test_button "Reset Max"
(
-- store the classes you want to make into an array
-- This can be added to
local classItems =#(Box, Plane, Pyramid, Cone, Torus, Hedra, Capsule)
button theButton "Reset Max"---Creates Button
on theButton pressed do---When pressing Button
resetMaxFile #noprompt---Resets Max File
dropdownlist scale_dd "Shape:" items:(for i in classItems collect i as string)
-- call the constructor of the class item from the selected index of the dropdownlist
on scale_dd selected i do classItems[i]()
)
createDialog test_button 300 150
sounds like paradox
