I'm attempting to add autocomplete functionality to it using Jquery. The problem however is I have an external file that hold's a list of items that I load into the HTA at startup and turn those into select options.

Based on the one option that is selected I return the value and text, and use that to carry out my macro. I thought about changing my file from just a normal textfile with the values being separated by hyphons into an XML file.

The problem is I'm not quite sure how to pass the selected option back to VBS based on the Jquery autocomplete code I'm seeing, and I've seen a lot at this point.

So is it possible to use Jquery to add a search field that picks a select option that is loaded from an external file and pass it back to VBS?

Thanks in advance.
