Radio buttons in VBScript

I know this is an often asked question, but I can't seem to find an answer that fits my simple needs.
I'm wrtiing a VBscript which requires to get user input from a list of choices. It seems the proper way is to use an external HTA file.
But I don't know how this should look like.

So if anyone could give me a basic example of a VBScript obtaining user answers from an HTA file, it would help a lot.

Thanks

Thanks, but this shows an HTA that includes VBscript. I need the opposite.
In sequence : The VBS launches the HTA
The HTA shows the buttons, then gets the answer from the user
The VBS gets the information back and goes on

Thats an interesting idea, but Im not sure how to approach it. I dont think it is possible with an .hta, but it may be possible using the InternetExplorer.Application object. I will play and see what I can do.

Thanks. I know it's been done before.
I found some information about it here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/923503/how-to-create-options-dialog-with-vbscript
But I'm not good enough with both VBScript and HTA to adapt this to my needs.
