I've got a client who's asking for some file management tricks on Windows
that hopefully folks on the list know how to pull off:
1) First Run -- I've been told Windows has some kind of directory where you
can install files that are run once after being installed. Is this true?
If I install an MC app and want it to auto-launch only one time, can this
simply be placed in whatever magic directory handles one time launches?
2) Time Delayed Auto Launch -- Apparently it's possible to somehow tell
Windows to launch a specified document or app after a designated period of
time has elapsed. The only way I can imagine doing this is through a visual
basic script or something similar. If I install an MC app and want Windows
to automatically launch it after 20 days, is this possible?
3) Icon Flash -- Is it possible to make Windows flash, hilite or otherwise
repeatedly change the appearance of an icon on the desktop?
Thanks for any help with the above.
Regards,
Scott
