I wrote a VBS and HTA that will list all the installed and missing updates, when active they seem like they are doing nothing but they are working and can take up to 5 minutes to finish. List Update Thread VBS script to list updates HTA to list updates

One semester of programming between 1983 - 1985 area. Joined this board about 10 years ago and saw how similar CMD was to I remember from my one semester of programming. I then started to learn CMD than moved onto VBS and now I am self taught in these code language's Jscript, HTA, Basic HTML, Vb.net

Yzöwl excellent script. Here an modified script that I posted earlier, I made it remove all my VBS comments in my HTA for the demo. Dim Fso :Set Fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")'-> File To Work WithDim Text :Text = "Demo Count Down.hta"'-> Check To See If File Exists If Fso.FileExists(Text) Then ReadListText(Fso.GetFile(Text)) Else WScript.Echo "Missing : " & Text End If '-> Function To Process Line By Line Text Files Function ReadListText(T) Dim i, j, Ts, V1 Set Ts = Fso.OpenTextFile(T.Path, 1) i = Ts.ReadAll For Each j In Split(i,vbCrLf)'-> Skips Comment Line For Output If Not Left(j,3) = "'->" Then WScript.Echo j End If Next End Function Here is the code in HTA to change <SCRIPT LANGUAGE='VBScript'>'-> Resize And Place In Approx Center Of Screen Dim Wth, Hht :Wth = int(401) :Hht = int(155) window.ResizeTo Wth, Hht MoveTo ((Screen.Width / 2) - (Wth / 2)),((Screen.Height / 2) - (Hht / 2))'-> Varibles For Runtime Dim S1, Tm1'-> Window Onload Function Window_OnLoad()'-> Set The Timer At 90 S1 = 90 Counter() End Function '-> Counter For Count Down Function Counter() If S1 = 0 Then'-> Code Here For Action When Timer Reaches Zero window.clearTimeout(Tm1) Tx1.innerHTML="000" ' CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run("shutdown.exe -s -f -t 00"),0,False CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run("shutdown.exe -r -f -t 01"),0,False window.close() End If'-> Add Zero To Count Down If Len(S1) = 1 Then S1 = "00" & S1 If Len(S1) = 2 Then S1 = "0" & S1 Tx1.style.color="#9A0000" :Tx1.innerHTML=S1 S1 = S1 - 1 Tm1=window.setTimeout("Counter()",1000,"VBScript") End Function </SCRIPT>Script output with comments removed <SCRIPT LANGUAGE='VBScript'> Dim Wth, Hht :Wth = int(401) :Hht = int(155) window.ResizeTo Wth, Hht MoveTo ((Screen.Width / 2) - (Wth / 2)),((Screen.Height / 2) - (Hht / 2)) Dim S1, Tm1 Function Window_OnLoad() S1 = 90 Counter() End Function Function Counter() If S1 = 0 Then window.clearTimeout(Tm1) Tx1.innerHTML="000" ' CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run("shutdown.exe -s -f -t 00"),0,False CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run("shutdown.exe -r -f -t 01"),0,False window.close() End If If Len(S1) = 1 Then S1 = "00" & S1 If Len(S1) = 2 Then S1 = "0" & S1 Tx1.style.color="#9A0000" :Tx1.innerHTML=S1 S1 = S1 - 1 Tm1=window.setTimeout("Counter()",1000,"VBScript") End Function </SCRIPT>

If he was to post the full script that he is using I probably might post the VBS equivalent. Example VBS Script To Process A Text Line By Line Dim Fso :Set Fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")'-> File To Work WithDim Text :Text = "Demo Count Down.hta"'-> Check To See If File Exists If Fso.FileExists(Text) Then ReadListText(Fso.GetFile(Text)) Else WScript.Echo "Missing : " & Text End If '-> Function To Process Line By Line Text Files Function ReadListText(T) Dim i, j, Ts Set Ts = Fso.OpenTextFile(T.Path, 1) i = Ts.ReadAll For Each j In Split(i,vbCrLf) WScript.Echo j Next End Function

My two cents worth, VBS would most like be better at processing the HTML line by line without the worry of special characters.

I will look threw all the code and try to figure out some Arrays and some For If to lessen the code. Here is another code saving for you on the Msgbox, you are using a Variable to check for Yes Or No. Coded this way you will not need the variable because you will be using the Msgbox and using that result for your script. '-> Some Text Details About Purpose Of Messagebox If MsgBox( _ "Would You Like To Copy - Pay Rates",4132,"Payrates Copy") = 6 Then'-> Code Here For The Yes Reply Else'-> Code Here For The No Reply End IfHere is what using Array and a For Each Loop does for your code, all youwould have to is change all the WScript.Echo _ Example Of Changes for your script Change From WScript.Echo _ "wb2PR.Range(" & Chr(34) & i & Chr(34) & ").Copy" & vbCrLf & _ "wb3.Range(" & Chr(34) & j(0) & Chr(34) & ").PasteSpecial"Change To wb2PR.Range(Chr(34) & i & Chr(34)).Copy wb3.Range(Chr(34) & j(0) & Chr(34)).PasteSpecial'-> Pay Rate If MsgBox( _ "Would You Like To Copy - Pay Rates",4132,"Payrates Copy") = 6 Then Dim PyRts :PyRts = Array( _ "E1:F1", _ "B3:E3", _ "E5:F5", _ "B7:E7", _ "E9:F9", _ "B11:E11", _ "E13:F13", _ "B15:E15", _ "E17:F17", _ "B19:E19", _ "E21:F21", _ "B23:E23", _ "C26:C27", _ "C30:C31") Dim i, j '-> Loop Threw The Array For Each i In PyRts'-> Split i And Use First Value j = Split(i,":") WScript.Echo _ "wb2PR.Range(" & Chr(34) & i & Chr(34) & ").Copy" & vbCrLf & _ "wb3.Range(" & Chr(34) & j(0) & Chr(34) & ").PasteSpecial" If UCase(j(0)) = "C26" Then'-> EXTRA TAX #1 Date WScript.Echo _ "wb2PR.Range(" & Chr(34) & "E26" & Chr(34)& ").Copy" & vbCrLf & _ "wb3.Range(" & Chr(34) & "E26" & Chr(34)& ").PasteSpecial" End If If UCase(j(0)) = "C30" Then'-> EXTRA TAX #2 Date WScript.Echo _ "wb2PR.Range(" & Chr(34) & "E30" & Chr(34)& ").Copy" & vbCrLf & _ "wb3.Range(" & Chr(34) & "E30" & Chr(34)& ").PasteSpecial" End If Next'-> Primary ESO WScript.Echo _ "wb2PR.Range(" & Chr(34) & "O10" & Chr(34)& ").Copy" & vbCrLf & _ "wb3.Range(" & Chr(34) & "O10" & Chr(34)& ").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues" End If Produces this out put

Since I do not use Excel are you looking to clean up thing like Messageboxes and lessen the code. Example Your Msgbox Dim PR_YesNo Dim mboxPR As Integer Dim strPromptPR As String strPromptPR = "Do you want to copy - PAY RATES??" mboxPR = MsgBox(strPromptPR, vbYesNo, strTitle) Check pressed button If mboxPR = vbYes Then PR_YesNo = "YES" Else: PR_YesNo = "NO" End IfNow I am not sure if this will work in a Excel but here is a less coded Msgbox Dim PR_YesNo If MsgBox( _ "Would You Like To Copy - Pay Rates",4132,"Payrates Copy") = 6 Then PR_YesNo = "YES" Else PR_YesNo = "NO" End If

Since this is a older thread and the original poster requested Cmd with countdown, I just recently wrote this VBS script that has a countdown and you can cancel the countdown. '-> Object For Runtime Dim Act :Set Act = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") '-> Set The Amout Of Time For Count Down Dim S1 :S1 = 15 Main() Function Main() If S1 = 0 Then '-> Script Action For Time Out MsgBox "Script Place Holder, Time Out",4128,"Demo CountDown" WScript.Quit End If '-> add Zero EG 9 = 009 If Len(S1) = 1 Then S1 = "00" & S1 If Len(S1) = 2 Then S1 = "0" & S1 '-> Time Message Box If Act.Popup( "Time Left : " & S1 & vbCrLf & _ "Press Cancel To Exit And Stop",1,"Test Count Down",4129) = 2 Then MsgBox "User cancel",4128,"User Cancel" WScript.Quit End If S1 = S1 - 1 Main() End Function

To run the exe change to this '-> Code Here For Action When Timer Reaches Zero window.clearTimeout(Tm1) Tx1.innerHTML="000" CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run("shutdown.exe -s -f -t 00"),0,False window.close() Sound like you need to resize the HTA to fit any text changes that you may of made. This controls the size of the window so change it until it fits what you need. Wth=Width Hht=Height '-> Resize And Place In Approx Center Of Screen Dim Wth, Hht :Wth = int(401) :Hht = int(155)

Perhaps a HTA using VBS scripting would be better for what you want. I have made this HTA Demo of a count down, you can cancel the count down and close the HTA. <!--June-22-13 Hta And Script By Gunsmokingman Aka Jake1Eye This code is property of Gunsmokingman and Or Jake1Eye and you must have his permission to use.

I made a VB Net app that show ram usage and basic OS information. This is from this Thread Get_KeyV1.exe

It does not delete, I just posted to show how it would be done in VBS and left the delete out.
