How could I hide the IE Scrollbars with WScript
when creating an instance with WScript.CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application ")?

Thanks.

What are you trying to hide them on? You may not need to use a script.

Thanks for your reply.

Although I can't write the following code to open an instance of IE,
I CAN'T hide its vertical scrollbar!

Set objExplorer = WScript.CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application ")
objExplorer.Navigate "about:blank"
objExplorer.ToolBar = 0
objExplorer.StatusBar = 0
objExplorer.Width = 264
objExplorer.Height = 352
objExplorer.Left = 0
objExplorer.Top = 0
objExplorer.Visible = 1

Thanks again.

What you could do is, and I'm assuming you're opening a premade page, have the pop-up target a frame page and use the scrolling=no switch. Then have that frame load the page you want the user to see.

Or you could use an CSS blurb in the <head> tag to make the scollbar elements a single color - the same as the background. This wouldn't make the scrollbar go away, but it would be 'invisible.'

Since I'm not sure what you're after exactly, that's about all I can tell you.

add "scroll=no" to the <BODY> tag

It sounds like you were trying to write client side script from an asp page which is server side.
You wouldn't be able to access the properties like that

What I'm doing is to write a VBS to run when users log in windows. This VBS script will open a popup IE window, with no scroll bars.
