Could you explin how to impletment these in a script?
as an example:
if HollyJollyChristmas = "The best time of the year" then
objshell.run ("\\<server ip>\<file name> /q:a /r:n",1,True
end if
So if I wanted to show that their was progress during the install of
<file name> how would I inject this into the IE progress bars code?
TIA
