I've been using vbscript for several years extensively, but just recently
graduated to HTA's. As I study others' HTA's I keep seeing TRACE
statements similare to the one below. Could someone please shed a little
light on what it means?

Trace "Loading Program"

Thanks a million!

Tracing can be a handy tool.

In an HTA, just set up a window into which you can append text. In a
VBScript or WSH project, open and IE window into which you can append text.
Note that your program will slow down significantly as the amount of text in
the window increases. Set up your trace routine so that it appends the text
argument to the text in the window and scrolls to the bottom so you can
always see the newest stuff. Or maybe have a button that turns the
autoscroll on & off so you can manually scroll up and down while the script
is running. You might even have the routine time-stamp each entry.
