    February 14, 2008 Feb 14, 2008 02/14/08

    Hey, Scripting Guy! I have an HTA that asks users to either click a button to install some software or click Cancel. Sometimes, though, users don’t do either one; they just let the HTA sit there. Is there any way to show the HTA for a set amount of time and then, if nothing happens, have it go ahead and install the software?-- TN Hey, TN...

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How Can I Create an HTA For Displaying Log Files?

    February 4, 2008 Feb 4, 2008 02/4/08

    Hey, Scripting Guy! I have a bunch of log files (all in the same folder) that I periodically need to review. What I thought would be really cool would be to have an HTA that, when it starts up, retrieves all the log file names and displays those names in a list box; I could then click any file name and the HTA would read the file and display...

    October 1, 2007 Oct 1, 2007 10/1/07
