Excellent script DiGiTAL.SkReAM !!!
 
There's only one thing I don't understand: why do you do ExecuteGlobal "Dim oShell, oFSO, oEnv" instead of defining them alongside oBarCat?
 
Also, you could avoid the registry access issues if you used the .run file to hold the status text instead.

Thanks, Tony.
To answer your questions, I Dim'med those variables via ExecuteGlobal as a hack, since I needed them to be there, but I didn't want to have them declared until after the StartBar sub was run.
 
And the registry access is there because it is so much faster than dumping text to a file.  When I was using text files to hold the status text, in earlier incarnations of the class, I found that after a long run time, the chances of my reading and writing to the file at the same time increased, and eventually, it would crash.  by using the registry, the processing is much faster (try timing registry i/o vs. file i/o sometime), and I don't have that worry.  I have found that if a script is processing in a linear fashion, using a text file as a temp memory storage area is sometimes ok, but when you have two or more processes accessing that same file... things can get a bit dicey.

this is probably a stupid question....
 
I have an hta which installs software via a list box and the listbox calls a sub example
 
Sub installmediaplayer11
 objfso.CopyFile"\\server\sw-package$\Silent_Software_Installs\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe", "C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe"
 winsh.Run("C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe /Q:A /R:N")
 End Sub
 
What i would like to do is have a progress bar whilst the install is happening.  How would i go about doing this using this code?
 
Thank in advance

 End Sub

What i would like to do is have a progress bar whilst the install is happening.  How would i go about doing this using this code?

 
Like this:
First, tack the progressbar class onto the end of your code.  Then, modify the above Sub to look like this: 
 Sub installmediaplayer11
 dim oBar
 set oBar = New ProgressBar
 oBar.StartBar "Now installing some stuff... Be a patient little code-monkey."
 objfso.CopyFile"\\server\sw-package$\Silent_Software_Installs\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe", "C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe" 
 winsh.Run("C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe /Q:A /R:N")
 oBar.CloseBar
 End Sub

Thanks for your help i am having a few problems getting the class in the right place it should be the last thing before the </script> command right?

oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "</SCRIPT>"
 
Thats the line it seems to throw back. [sm=rolleyes.gif]

OK so after more testing i have worked out it is because i am running it from an hta if i put it in a vbs file it works fine but when in an hta it fails.  Any thoughts?

Hmmmm....that is odd given the lines that you posted. Could you post some more lines from around there?

I would think about pulling the dictionary creation part out into a seperate script to make it easier to find the problem.

This code was never meant to be run from inside another HTA. 
First off, you are including the example code at the beginning, which includes WScript.Sleep commands that are invalid in an HTA.
Secondly, the section where it tries to bring itself to the forefront performs an appactivate on mshta.exe.  Well, if you already have an HTA open, mshta.exe is already being used.  When the Progressbar ends, it kills the mshta.exe process - which would kill your original HTA as well.
 
It is kinda like saying "This snowsuit doesn't keep me dry when I am snorkeling!  Snow is just frozen water, so it should work!  How do I fix it?"
The only answer is: don't use it while snorkeling!

ok so i would have to run as an external vbs file?  As i know it works that way but based on the following how would i call it?
  
  Sub installmediaplayer11
 dim oBar
 set oBar = New ProgressBar
 oBar.StartBar "Now installing some stuff... Be a patient little code-monkey."
 objfso.CopyFile"\\server\sw-package$\Silent_Software_Installs\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe", "C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe" 
 winsh.Run("C:\IT_SOFTWARE\wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe /Q:A /R:N")
 oBar.CloseBar
 End Sub

The same wayt hat you would call any other external vbs file.
Perform a search in the fora for
filesystemobject
arguments
wscript.shell
and then read some of the docs.
You are looking for a way to run an external vbscript from another, while passing arguments to it.  I can provide the class, but it is up to you to learn how to use it in conjunction with your own code.

I know this thread is old, but I just came across this progressbar the other day and I like the way it works, for the most part.  I have a few comments regarding it though. 
1). Throughout the code, every pointer to an object created is never set to Nothing when you are finished, this poses a memory leak, does it not?  As well as using the If CreateObject(...), how is that object released?  Shouldn't it be set to some variable x, then set to Nothing when finished?
2). You mentioned to a user that this code wasn't intended to run inside an HTA, which I agree, however, the code can be executed from within an HTA by used of wscript.shell and the run method.  In terms of it killing the mshta.exe process, I acutally couldn't find where you do that, and have noticed that if I have multiple HTA applications running, only progressbar closes.  However, your call to oShell.AppActivate causes every HTA application to be activated.  To Activate only the progressbar, I modified the code a little.  I modified your For loop from:

oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "Set cItems = oWMIService.ExecQuery(" & Chr(34) & "SELECT Name, ExecutablePath FROM Win32_Process where Name = 'mshta.exe'" & Chr(34) & ")"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "   For Each oItem in cItems"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "      oShell.AppActivate oItem.Handle"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "   Next"

to:

oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "  Set cItems = oWMIService.ExecQuery(" & Chr(34) & "SELECT Name, ExecutablePath, CommandLine FROM Win32_Process where Name = 'mshta.exe'" & Chr(34) & ")"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "   For Each oItem in cItems"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "  If oItem.CommandLine = document.Location.pathname Then"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "      oShell.AppActivate oItem.Handle"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "  End If"
oBarCat.Add oBarCat.Count, "   Next"

This will only activate the HTA that matches the filename running the code, hence progressbar. For that to work, I had to change the select statement and add the column CommandLine to the list you were selecting.

Other mods made:
You hard coded a path on the C: drive which doesn't happen to exist for the workstations at the Corporation I work for:

sProgressBarHTAFileKiller = "c:\temp\htakiller.vbs"

so I made use of an object you were using thoughout for the environment variables and changed the line to:

sProgressBarHTAFileKiller = oEnv("TEMP") & "\htakiller.vbs"

As well, as mentioned before with setting object pointers to Nothing, couldn't this be handled in the class terminate procedure (which would have to be added of course, ProgressBar_Terminate() )?  Other than that, it seems to do what I was looking for.  : )

Hi KroBaar,

two comments on your comments:

(1) "Set oWhatever = Nothing" isn't necessary most of the time; see

        http://blogs.msdn.com/ericlippert/archive/2004/04/28/122259.aspx

(2) All 'destructors' in VBScript are named "Class_Terminate"

Regards

ehvbs

ehvbs..
 
1.  Thanks for the link to that document.  I'm embarrassed to say I never really understood how the garbage collector worked in VBScript until I read through that blog and did more research on it.  I was simply "blindly" following the advice of other co-workers as they seem to have that rule set in stone.  Thanks for the knock on my noggin.  ;-)
 
2.)  Yes, I realized my mistake with the Class_Terminate shortly after posting my message.
 
So I guess my only real valid comment then would be the mod. to make the progressbar hta the only hta to be affected by the call to oShell.AppActivate and removing the hard coded path to c:\temp.
 
thanks,
KroBaar.

As happens every so often, I learn something.
As happens more often, someone points out an error that I made, prior to the above.
So, in deference to both of the above, I am posting the latest 'iteration' of the progressbar class.

Changes:
1) Instead of using c:\temp, the code now generates a 16 character folder name at random, and uses that as it's "home". 
This prevents errors when the TEMP folder is emptied during a progressbar run.
2) The htakiller.vbs file is now created in the root of the drive letter in which the %TEMP% variable contains.
3) The code now brings to the forefront only the mshta.exe process that ran the progressbar hta in the first place, rather than the first one it finds in memory.
 
Thanks to KroBaar for pointing out where I'd gone wrong, and thanks to my good friend Mountain Dew for giving me the wakefullness to spend on correcting the code.
 
Insomnia is a terrible thing.
 
Could a Fourm Admin please update the code in the first post in this thread with the code below?

DiGiTAL.SkReAM, Thanks for fixing this to work with IE 7. When last I poached the code IE7 was not on our radar, so I never thought to test it.  But after we deplyed IE7 three weeks ago, I got to find ou the hard way.
 
I did have to butcher it a little to work for non privileged users by changing the references to HKLM, to HKCU and also forcing the *.hta, *.run, and *sleep.vbs files to be generated under %userprofile%\local settings\temp. Not sure if your intention was to randomly generate a folder at the root of the C drive, or not, but our people are unable to write to that location. So just for Sh*ts and giggles, I'm posting my rendition of this script.
Again, much thanks to you and everyone who contributes on this forum.
