Check the 3rd post in this thread. I posted a sample script that does that:

thats different.

I'm looking for a script that you can place onenter section

that will activate an npc to talk to you. those look like to add an item to a locker or add an item to an npc on spawn.

OnEnter event of what? The Module, the Area or a trigger?

 

Does the NPC already exist near where the player enters, or does it need to be created?

 

What's the Tag of the NPC?

Since you didn't say what kind of object it is supposed to be an OnEnter script for, I assumed it was for the area in the below script.

 

I think this should work:

void main() {   
   if (GetIsPlayerMadeCharacter(GetEnteringObject())
       && !GetLocalBoolean(OBJECT_SELF, 40)) 
   {
       SetLocalBoolean(OBJECT_SELF, 40, TRUE);
       object oNPC = GetObjectByTag("doctor1");
       NoClicksFor(2.0);
       DelayCommand(2.0, AssignCommand(oNPC, ActionStartConversation(GetFirstPC())));  
   }
}

Unless it doesn't fit your plans, I'd add the following line to the script:

AssignCommand((GetObjectByTag("doctor1")),ActionMoveToObject(oPC));

just in case the npc is a bit too far....and it looks nice when you enter the module.
