I can't seem to get Daemon Tools 3.46 to install unattended on Windows 2000. Neither runonceex nor guirunonce seem to be able to install it...even if it is the only application I try to install. I always get the following entry in the application event log: I thought it might be related to the sequence of apps being installed which is why I tried it as the only program from runonceex. Any ideas? btw. I copied reg.exe from Windows XP and use the following batch lines to set it up in runonceex: SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx REG ADD %KEY%\040 /VE /D "Daemon Tools 3.46" /f REG ADD %KEY%\040 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\apps\daemontools\daemon.msi Reboot=ReallySuppress /qn" /f Thanks a bunch in advance.

In the following VBScript code I'm trying to compare two numbers and pass the operator from the command line. I substitute the words "greater", "less" and "equal" instead of the symbols to not upset the shell. However the If..Then statement doesn't like me using the variable for the operator. Any ideas. Thanks for the help. Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set colArgs = WScript.Arguments str1stnumber = colArgs.Item(0) str2ndnumber = colArgs.Item(1) strOperator = colArgs.Item(2) If strOperator = "less" Then strOperator = "<" ElseIf strOperator = "greater" Then strOperator = ">" ElseIf strOperator = "equal" Then strOperator = "=" End If If str1stnumber strOperator str2ndnumber Then wscript.echo "it works" End If

That's it! Works like a charm now. Thanks killerbee.

yeah, i tried that. it doesn't work either. i still get prompted to click next to continue. any other ideas?

Anybody know how to get the downloadable resource kit to install silently? reskit.exe /? says /Q is for quiet modes but I must be missing another switch. Thanks for your help. btw. this is where I got it from. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en
