I am pursuing a [i]somewhat [/i]related objective, and I just saw a post that MIGHT help:
[url]http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2063[/url]

Note poster describing an entry in the registry, (which of course a portable install won't create). Maybe manual creation of a single registry entry will work? Won't it be nice if its that easy. I'd guess it can be resolved with the registry, though probably not with a single key.

I am using a portable version as well.
I have a script that I created and it works fine from within MM of the Menu>Tools>Scripts.

It does CreateObject( "SongsDB.SDBApplication" ) without problems from within MM.

Externally it is not working though.

I understand that ActiveX for SongsDB.SDBApplication is not registered but somehow MM creates this object when running script within.

[u][i]Question:[/i][/u]
[color=#FF0000][b]Is there any way to create that object externally from VB or VBS without portable MM running?
by registering some DLL(s) or specifying a path somwhere or placing that script in a specific directory or anythinkg alse that I did not mention.[/b][/color]
