    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I clear a list box in an HTA?-- AK Hey, AK. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the term, an HTA - among other things - is a way to use Internet Explorer to provide a graphical user interface for your scripts. (If that still doesn’t answer your questions, don’t despair. Instead, stay tuned for April ...

    How Can I Center an HTA on the Screen?

    October 10, 2005 Oct 10, 2005 10/10/05

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I center an HTA on the screen?-- BH Hey, BH. Well, we have an answer for you, although it’s not perfect: we can resize (if need be) and center your window, but there will be a momentary flash on the screen when all this happens. It’s not too terribly distracting and the net effect is what you want: the HTA ...

    How Can I Pass Command-Line Variables to an HTA When It Starts?

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I pass command-line variables to an HTA when it starts?-- DM Hey, DM. Ok, we admit it: you almost had us on this one.

    March 9, 2006 Mar 9, 2006 03/9/06

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I encode scripts within an HTA?-- LL Hey, LL. You know, when we first read this question we thought, “What’s the big deal?

    How Can I Clear a Text Box in an HTA?

    June 9, 2005 Jun 9, 2005 06/9/05

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I clear a text box in an HTA?-- CB Hey, CB. You know, it’s been awhile since we’ve answered a question about HTAs (HTML Applications).

    How Can I Clear an HTA Window?

    November 9, 2005 Nov 9, 2005 11/9/05

    Hey, Scripting Guy! How can I clear an HTA window?-- DF Hey, DF. Well, to tell you the truth, if you’d ever seen at least one of the Scripting Houses you wouldn’t be asking us if we knew how to clear a window; it’s pretty obviously some of us don’t.

    Hey, Scripting Guy! I’d like to create an HTA that, upon loading, can open a text file and then display the contents. However, I’d like a particular keyword in those contents to be highlighted. How can I do that?-- GD Hey, GD. You know, a lot of people at Microsoft pooh-pooh the work that the Scripting Guys do. “Take that Hey, ...
