Yes you are correct I think.

Please see this URL for more information from the horse's mouth.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/scriptcenter/scrptfaq.asp

There is a table on that page which details OS and what works or not.

There is even a promise of future development of a script which will query the host system for details on whether other scripts will run or not.

Windows installers such as SetUpFactory from Indigo Rose which I have used a lot, will poll the windows system and allow separate, Boolean logic driven installs of ancillary software.

However, another caveat when considering Windows or VB scripts for activating Revolution is that on my system (XP with McCafee) the antivirus software throws a suspicious script activity warning requiring "training" by the user. Not a good user/client confidence building exercise!

So, I don't think the current scripting ideas do what was originally wanted. Looking at a direct comand line script may be better.

Regarding Windows Scripting Host, isn't it optional on the system install? I seem to recall many times having to select it to be installed... Just thinking out loud that this might be an issue if one becomes dependent on its presence, unlike Applescript which is fully integrated, and used frequently as a result.

I could be wrong here!
