Not much to it

* Function: Is_WSH.prg
* Author: George Tasker
* Date: July 18, 2000 - 9:57 AM
* Purpose: Is the Windows Script Host installed

LOCAL llresult, loReg
SET CLASSLIB TO Registry.vcx
loReg = CREATEOBJECT("Registry")
llresult = loReg.IsKey("VBScript.RegExp")
RELEASE CLASSLIB Registry
RETURN llresult

This determines if the WSH is installed. If not, then RUN /N SCR55EN.EXE /Q is executed. This runs the installation program for the WSH. I think, however, that SCR55EN is no longer available, and has been replaced by SCR56EN.EXE (which I think is still in beta).
