This is a modification of Edward Troxel's "AddMarkersToEvents" script. This one will assign a region to each event on the selected track. The regions are not named. You can later name them by selecting View -> Edit Detail in Vegas, and then selecting Show -> Regions in the dialog box.

Here's the script. Copy and paste the text below the dotted line below to Windows Notepad, and then save to a filename with the extension ".js". For instance:

AddRegionsToEvents.js
