    If you may remember I had created a HTA that unlocks computers on our network. The HTA works great. No issues from any of the department managers that use it. It drives me crazy though. I don't think it's clean enough. to be able to use it I have to put the HTA and several batch files and several script files on the machine in a folder. Is it possible to convert the HTA, batch, and script files into a program that I could run an installer with and possibly an updater? Not only would it make the whole project cleaner, but it would add security to the program since it would keep the code out of reach. So back to the question, is it possible?

      I will try to answer your question this way: Do I know of a converter to switch from VBScript to VB.NET? No. Can the code be rewritten an a VB.NET service? I don't see why not. I have written a number of services in VB.NET to accomplish various tasks; some have been in production for a couple of years. Tim

        Thanks. Atleast I know it's possible. Now I can start trying to convert the scripts into a single program. Thanks again.
