impactradio impactradio Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-05-27 Posts: 22 Loc: Washington, DC	I have a timekeeper program that we need to launch at login. it is called timekeeper.hta. How would I go about launching? I am a toatl newbie, and have a busy day ahead, and figured someone with a vast knowledge could tell me in 1 minute how to do this. The file is located in the same directory as the kixtart script... _________________________ Help Me!!!

Chris S. Chris S. MM club member Registered: 2002-03-18 Posts: 2368 Loc: Earth	Yeah, but I think that "Start" requires %COMSPEC% to work.

Chris S. Chris S. MM club member Registered: 2002-03-18 Posts: 2368 Loc: Earth	Doh. Missed that somehow. How about this, then... code: if ingroup('hourly') run 'cmd /c timekeeper.hta' endif ...for an even lower score (nevermind the fact it won't run on Win 9x)!
