Windows 10: I have an error in line 31 of Run.vbs .

It is saying "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service" with error code: 800705AA. This prompt shows up every time I start my windows 11 laptop. I have tried to run 'Run.vbs' manually by going to the folder specified in the prompt but than again same thing happens.I have Ryzen 5 3500u cpu with integrated graphics and 20Gb of ram.

VBS Msgbox

Denis,

• I was too lazy to compute the size programmatically. And, it the 2005 version the message box always came up hidden, so I always used 0 for the top. It's also part of my OCD to be able to control everything.
• I personally don't need it to timeout. I used this in vbs files to ask to continue to the next step, skip the next step or cancel the vbs. BTW, I added the code back in but keep it assign it to 0.
• Sound was calling Windows Media Player: WshShell.Run "C:\Users\donast\desktop\sndrec32.lnk",7,false the lnk is a shortcut on my old desktop that had: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe"
  "C:\Users\Public\Music\Wavefiles\Twilight.wav"
• Yes. The value is the number of the button in the order specified when calling it.
• Never really thought about it as all my VBS/VBA code is relatively simple and I add comments in the file as necessary to remind me what is going on. I don't usually have anyone to share my code.

FYI I use a VBS to call it. Here's a line from a test vbs I use to run your version:

choice=Wshshell.run("custommsgbox.vbs " & wscript.scriptname & " ""CopyFiles.vbs done. Continue with UnArchVista.vbs?"" ""White"" ""Black"" 40 ""Yes"" ""No"" ""Cancel""",1,true)

Copy it to a text editor to see all the spaces, etc. Took me a while back the to figure it out.

VBS Msgbox

Don,

I copied the code into a vbs file - [Superceded] [if your security prevents it from being downloaded then use this one [Superceded] and just take off the .txt at the end of its name]

I think I am using the syntax correctly now. I can control the number of buttons & their labels together with the title and message and the dialog width.

MyMsgBox .vbs TestMsg TestTitle 200 "Yes" "No" "Whatever" "Another"

It is certainly what I was looking for - an easily customisable msgbox tool that I can call from batch files and vbs files.

Has there possibly been some accidental editing of this file [during fault-finding possibly]? Do you have a copy from before you started fault-finding?

If line 24 [if oArgs.count > 3 then nbttns=oArgs.count-3] is split into two

if oArgs.count > 3 then

nbttns=oArgs.count-3

the procedure runs to completion but

• The dialog is only shown onscreen for a moment
• The key press result is not processed [the variable a remains as 0].
  

I have played around in the lines around a=oIE.document.parentWindow.return quite a bit and I noticed

• The first line oIE.document.parentWindow.return causes an error [hence the need for the preceding
  On Error Resume Next] I do not think it has the property return.
• I think the second line oIE.document.parentWindow.return is never run because of the same fault as the first one and so
  a is never allocated a value.
• The do loops and If statements in this section look strange. The Ifs are never completed.
• The two remarked out lines 'wscript.echo "GetElementById(""b0"").focus"
  and '.GetElementById("b0").focus are strange. Have they been changed during fault-finding?
• There are several wscript.echo lines. I assume you have been inserting these as part of fault-finding.

What was the latest version of IE that this script worked with? Before IE7 or after? I have a vague memory that properties such as the
ReadyState used for the dialog changed with IE7.

I think I will have to turn to Tom Lavedas's latest version and start studying that. A shame that your ready-made solution could not obtain that
a value because it would otherwise have allowed me to just get on with using the tool instead of having to study the subject properly.
