Word Of The Day

Updated Aug 09, 2002 by AJCrowley

UPDATE: Fixed a minor bug.

Perplex your peers with your supercilious loquacity. This DXScript object grabs the word of the day from www.dictionary.com and places it on your desktop. The font I used is included in the zip. Enjoy.

You need the Microsoft Internet Transfer Control installed to use this. It *should* be installed by default with windows. Use ObjectBrowser to select the WOTDCtl object, then go into the Edit Script section. The control dropdown should have the Microsoft Internet Transfer Control 6.0 selected. If not select it and try again, if it is already selected and the error persists, give me more details - which version of DesktopX, Windows etc.

If for some reason you don't have the msinet.ocx required for this, you can download a package containing it from http://download.microsoft.com/download/access97/sample/3/WIN98/EN-US/Inetsamp.exe

Just copy the msinet.ocx to your windows\system32 directory, then run "regsvr32 msinet.ocx", all should them be well.

Enjoy
