I personally do not have any problems with vista what so ever.
I have it running on 2 machines here and it runs just fine.
To use the script manager, just remember to turn the UAC (user account
control) off.
There is actually a way you can compile scripts without turning it off but
it is a little complex.

Hi Jackie,
Thanks very much for this information. It is good to know that it is
possible to live with Vista where no other option is available.
Recently, I put the question out to the list asking if anyone has had any
good experience with Vista. There were several answers saying, "No.", and
none saying "Yes.". I have no actual experience with it myself.
Thanks again and happy hacking.
Regards,
Jim

Jim & Greg:
1st, Jim--I wonder what issues you're having w/vista? I have xp but
recently needed to fix a vista machine. & once I figured out what was
up w/it, it wasn't at all bad. In fact, there are some features which
actually make it advantageous, such as that the sound card is
operational in safe mode, etc. So, just for the record, I think vista
is quite accessible, especially if u turn off the annoying user
control thinggie & if u understand what it's doing. Jaws has a good
tutorial on accessing vista, should any1 need that.
Greg, As for FS's info, I think the basics of scripting & the
tutorials are all on Inthane's site--I don't know of anything that fs
has on its site that isn't on the grab bag as well, but that doesn't
mean there isn't something. Look at both, get whatever u need. This
list is a good place to get started.
