twooly Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 How can I associate HTA in PE so it doesn't prompt you with the open dialog box? I will be creating our front end using HTA and would like to get rid of this step.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likuidkewl Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Did you run the buildoptionalcomonents.vbs? This creates the files you need to enable HTA/ADO/WSH, then you append the line to your startnet.cmd,OC.batThat is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twooly Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 Yeah I have that. I can use my HTA files just fine but when I type this on the command prompt.d:\dir\dir\example.htaThe Usual IE download dialog box opens up telling you the file type and then you click the Open button and it works. How can I get rid of this step? Get rid of the download dialog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likuidkewl Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 You can launch it from a batch file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twooly Posted June 28, 2004 Author Share Posted June 28, 2004 I guess that is what I am asking. If I put the one line d:\dir\dir\example.hta in say the startnet.cmd I still get the dialog box. Can you give an example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likuidkewl Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Append mshta.exe to it, but make it it's own batch file. ex.mshta.exe <yourdir>\your.htahth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbouchard Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 What version of PE are you running? I experienced this with Version 1.2 and unfortunately have not found a way around this. Supposedly you can load a hive and make an edit there but I have not been succesful.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
