Sorry, I'm not getting it. Here's an example of what I'm trying to do (attachment).
Stdout and stderr appear to get tossed.
Thx.
Hello,
Is it possible to redirect stdout and stderr from an application that is launched with Run Program?

Is it possible to embed and assign a product icon? If the "Display Icon" is the method, then there's something I'm doing wrong, because it doesn't work (can sb5 extract an icon out of an ico file?).
Hmmm... maybe it's just so fast that it returns in 2 secs! I'll check it out. Thx.
Can you please post the fix for command line compiling to wait before returning? Thx.
Also, is a log file generated to indicate compile success or problems/failure?
Is there an operand to easily set a variable using bitwise OR's?
I have a number of contants describing the positions in a checkbox variable. E.g.

Hello,
Is there a way to check if the media where [EXENAME] was invoked still exists?

Is it possible to position a dialog? Ideally one could specifiy, TopLeft, TopRight, BottomLeft, and BottomRight, besides Center, or using coordinates.

Checkboxes don't work. I need to supply a paragraph of text, and Checkboxes cuts you off after a line or two (don't remember exactly).
It would be nice to understand how Dialogs are constructed,...
I'd like to add a MessageBox with a single Checkbox option. Is there a way to construct a dialog (and how)? Or is one constrained to the Define Wizard Dialog options?
Thx.
Hello Friedrich,
Adding a "Remove read-only attribute" option to "Delete Local File(s)" was a good thing. Can you add it to "Delete Folder Tree" as well?

Is there a way to run an sb5 script "unattended", like an Installshield .iss file... that is, to be able to record inputs the first time, and then use the file for inputs on subsequent executions? ...

When I create a Radio Buttons Dialog, it is posted with no options selected. Is it possible to set a default so that one of them (e.g. the first) is selected?
Thx

Thx. Works Great!
I have a file which I wish to "Install", whose name will change from time to time. I'd like set a constant (or variable) to the name, so that I can easily change it, and avoid doing a massive...
