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.

Running a VB Script File Using Windows 10 Task Scheduler

Here is my VB Script code:

Option Explicit    

Dim objExcel, strPathExcel

Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

strPathExcel = "C:\Users\John J\Documents\Great Oaks\2018 Season\Handicap Test.xlsm"

objExcel.DisplayAlerts = False

objExcel.Workbooks.Open strPathExcel

objExcel.Application.Run "'Handicap Test.xlsm'!HandicapRunTrial"

objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs strPathExcel

objExcel.Workbooks.close

objExcel.Application.Quit

WScript.Quit

In Task Scheduler Library, created a folder called "GOCC"

I than hit "Create Basic Task", name it and give brief description/

From the "Trigger" menu, I give a start date and time.

From the "Action" menu, I hit "Start", and browse for my vbs file. I click on it and the full path command is listed. The task is listed in the Scheduler.

Then I double click on the task, I keep the user account as "John J", click on " Run whether or not user is logged on or not, click

"Run with highest privileges", click on "Hidden" and then configure the task for "Windows 10." I hit "OK" which the computer prompts me for my password. I enter it and hit "ok."

The problem is that the vbs never runs at the designated date and time. I do not understand why it does not work.

Thanks
