What I have is a Windows Form that has built in shortcut keys to help the blind navigate easier/quicker. For instance they can hit Alt+b, Alt+d, Alt+r, ...to run individual subroutines. My problem is that the shortcuts were pre-selected for me, due to the fact that my blind users already have...

I need to create a RichTextBox, unless there is a better method that will have links within, among other things. I am having issues with a few items. My links will not be in Link Form (http://, file:, ...), they will be arbitrary. So, is there a way to create a link in a RTB wihtout the...

I have created an application that has multiple listview controls with multi-columns within. The columns have been created through the properties and not within the code, in case it matters. The problem I am having is with a screen reader (JAWS), it will read the information but never the...

A winner is you!

With msiexec I can throw a switch on that runs it quietly, without much if any user interaction. I can run it from a webpage, similar to my explanation above, with my vbscript waiting for the completion before continuation, wihtout copying the file to the client first. It is just a cleaner...

I was wondering if there was something similar to 'msiexec' for exe's?

the executable is sitting in a web server folder called "restricteddownload". The only way to access through a separate vbscript, would be to link to the folder and run the exe file. If you have any suggestions, I'm open for suggestions. But I would like to know if my original inquiry can be...

Here is the line, thanks for the help success = objShell.Run("http://www.url.htm/restricteddownload/Setup.exe",0,True)

I am building a script that runs some preliminary checks for me before firing an installation package (.exe file) located on a web server (i.e. http://www.something.com/install.exe). I need to inform the user once the installation has completed, that everything was installed correctly and...

Is it possible to disable/lock the keyboard/mouse with vbscript? I have a client-side script that compares files from a server with the client's files and replaces/adds if necessary. I would like to disable the possibility of conflict by taking the mouse and keyboard inputs away from the user...

Thanks tsuji, that works like a charm. New to VBScript and just learning the XML parser, so your help is much appreciated. If you have any sites for learning XMLDOM, I could really use any and all help.

Need to know if it is possible to check whether an attribute exists? As you can see below, the same XML file will be used by multiple users. I want to check to see if the attribute "name" exists. If not -I will create. If so, I pull the value. Before "Set nodSelect" statement, I would like...

Didn't even think about re-installing WSH, that is worth a try for sure. I have been writing the XML conversion tonight to test tomorrow, we'll see if that corrects the situation before re-installing. Thanks for the information.

Thanks DM but I have already tried that, the only thing that I can come up with is that the file is corrupt. Funny thing as I create the file through code, based on user selections, and the 1st time it is called after that it is already corrupt. I attempted to regenerate the file today and the...

I have a small vbscript/hta that creates an ini file to be used when running other tools. It contains just minimal information that tells the other programs what type of data should be used/displayed/allowed. Enough of that, the problem is that on a handful of these created ini files, the data...
