hideconsolewindows and windowsscriptinghost

[Chipp Walters]

Klaus,
Here's a script which I know works with hideconsolewindows...(this one
unlocks a file)
You might try it on your machine and see if it works. If it doesn't, then
there might be a reg setting off.

-Chipp

if the platform is "Win32" then
   put the filename of the topstack into tfile
   replace "/" with "\" in tfile
   put "attrib"&& quote & tfile & quote && "-R" into DosCommand
   set the hideConsoleWindows to true
   put shell (DosCommand) into theError
end if
