Very nifty! This and Bruce's AppleScript Xtra make Director about as powerful as you want to it be. BWAHAHA. > I would like to know if anyone has used the control in projects > before, and I'm interested in how you estimate it's real life > usefullness. Windows script host is very powerful. You can connect to databases, load, parse, and transform XML, control other apps -- just about anything. I use it all the time. > Maybe someone knows more about it's availability on different Windows > versions? The host is generally available for most modern versions of Win... (98+), but it often turned off by anti-virus software for obvious reasons. I am not sure about the control. I assume it is freely distributable.
