The problem with VBScript is that it is not event driven. A script will not wait for a keypress and continue on with the code. There are a COUPLE ways to emulate the original getkey, neither very satisfactory.

Use the password dll:

Code: [Select]Set objPassword = CREATEOBJECT("ScriptPW.Password")
WScript.StdOut.Write "Press a key: "
strKey = objPassword.GetPassword()
WScript.Echo
WScript.Echo "Key pressed is: " & Mid(strKey, 1, 1)

Use STD i/o DEVICES:

Code: [Select]WScript.Echo "Press a Key: "
WScript.StdOut.Write strMessage
inputKey = WScript.StdIn.Read(1)

In both method, the enter key is required to get the character into the script. Method 1 hides the character as if it were a password; method 2 doesn't even do that. Both methods accept multiple characters, but only the first is used for processing.

Both scripts should be saved with a vbs extension and run from the command prompt as cscript scriptname.vbs Note: do not use wscript.

Good luck. second code was working but i think i vista dont have password dll
but anyway thanks for help.
