Other way is to use some check, i.e., with such a logic: if file cscript.exe exists, exit (or C:\windows\...\cscript.exe etc.) if file cscript.exe doesn't exist, execute scriptEN.exe /q You could write it in Windows batch. -- Tomek http://wpkg.org wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users at lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users |
