thank u all @rajesh: I'll wait for ur 999th post btw, note on the double percent sign %%d above: this is because calling in cmd-file. If you run msgbox from other program, use only one percent sign %d (like printf()) And the number 65 in the example above is sum of 1+64 (OK Cancel + Information Icon). You may combine following box styles: Buttons: 0 OK 1 OK Cancel 2 Abort, Retry, Ignore 3 Yes, No, Cancel 4 Yes, No 5 Retry, Cancel Icon: 16 Error 32 Question 48 Exclamation 64 Information Default button: 256 make 2nd button default 512 make 3rd button default

AFAIK txtsetup.sif does not support wildcard or just folder name. But you can pack all your files and subfolders (recursive) in 1 self-extracting rar or 7z file and copy it via txtsetup.sif, right? MS does copying driver.cab in the same way.

use errorlevel, for example: msgbox "Setup will continue in %%d seconds." "Setup" 65 15 if errorlevel 2 goto :cancel rem *** put your stuff here in case the user clicks on OK or timed out *** :cancel Here are the errorlevels returned: 0 Timed out 1 OK 2 Cancel 3 Abort 4 Retry 5 Ignore 6 Yes 7 No You can also use %ERRORLEVEL% as environment variable, i.e. if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="5" goto :ignore if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="4" goto :retry if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="3" goto :abort

improved version can display countdown timer like this download: msgbox2.rar

I think you could put your script in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run or RunOnce or Startup program group. Those entries start after shell loaded.

oh the old good WBAT . Just forgotten

put your file(s) into i386 and add line(s) under [sourceDisksFiles] like this [sourceDisksFiles] myfile.ext = 1,,,,,,,45,0,0 The number 45 means %systemroot%\Temp (see section [WinntDirectories]) If you dont want your files have to be in i386 but another folder just define a source ID in [sourceDisksNames.x86] section see also http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=14852

I searched for such tool but did not find so I wrote myself. Maybe some of you can make use of this tiny tool Features: - standard styles (yes/no, ok/cancel, abort/retry,...) and icons - selectable default button with timeout option - only 1KB Download: msgbox.cab
