Hi Phil, > Have you tried "putting" tVBS just before the "do" to see what the VB > script looks like?
No, but I had put in a breakpoint. ;-) The script looked fine. And, as I said, suspecting line endings, I tried CRLF, etc. > You might see some obvious thing malformed.

No, it's on, but this script doesn't write to disk and is pretty innocuous (it just brings IE to front). I actually started testing a third party DLL written in VB that has many, many methods that I wanted to experiment with and the manufacturer had given examples in calling it from vbscript. The examples run from disk but when I tried from Rev 3.5 I got the execution error. So, I backed through different versions of Rev and then decided to try something basic like this two line script that doesn't use a DLL's methods. Just now, to eliminate the UAC factor, I moved the stack (which is a new stack with one button with this script in it) to XP SP2. There is a UAC on XP SP2, but I have never seen it interfere with anything. Ran under Rev 3.5. Same error. The complete code (double spaced so it hopefully doesn't all run into one line) is: ON mouseUp pMouseBtnNo VBS_AppActivate "Internet Explorer" END mouseUp ---------- ON VBS_AppActivate pTitle local tVBS, tResult ----- put format("set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject(\"WScript.Shell\")") into tVBS put tVBS & CR & format("WshShell.AppActivate \"Internet Explorer\")") & CR into tVBS -- Hardcoded breakpoint do tVBS as "VBScript" put the result into tResult IF tResult <> "" THEN put "Error:" && tResult END VBS_AppActivate tResult = *Error: execution error* Aloha from Hawaii, Jim Bufalini _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
