 - use vbscript to correct "the permissions on XXXX are incorrectly ordered..." I'm getting the error "The permissions on XXXX are incorrectly ordered..." on several directories/files on one of my Win2K servers. Is there a way to fix this with vbscript (something that will scan all files/directories on a drive and order the permissions correctly)? I found a reference to this (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];269159) on google, but can't figure out what it's talking about to see if it would help. Any help is appreciated.

 - Creating a DFS root Hi, Can someone tell me how to create a DFS root using VBScript, or alternatively point me to a site with info? There seems to be info out there on creating DFS links under an existing rot, but not how to create itself. As you may have understood from this, I'm not a scripting guru...

 - Michael Harris - How to disable-Enable Local area Connection PROPERTIES via script Hello, I read a post on google groups about how you handled enabling and disabling a Local Area Connection via script. Let me say it's awesome! But, I need to go down one more layer. I need to get into the local area connection properties and actually enable/disable the connection components. (ex. File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks) Any ideas? I took your script and found the verb "Properties" in oLanConnection.Verbs, but all that does is open the properties window of the oLanConnection.Verb("Properties") object. I need to enable/disable the components depending what program is about to execute. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Normally everything works just fine, but every once in a while, I get an error message indicating Outlook could not find the attached file for ".Attachments.add" I'm assuming the reason is Distiller had not yet released the file. I'd like to trap the error message and create a loop which would pause 1 sec, then issue another ".Attachment.add" command exiting the loop when no error was returned or after 10 tries.

 - how do I keep double quotes in parameters to cscript? I need to call a iis script file to set up an application extension in the webserver. The call must go through cscript. So the resulting structure is: cscript myvbscript <myparameters> <myparametrs> is something like python.exe "%s" When I execute this it turns out that myvbscript gets the parameters with the double quotes stripped off. It does not help to double up the quotes either. Is there some escape sequence that makes it possible to pass a " character through cscript into the call to the vbscript??? /Bo Tag: Avoiding VbScript text in title of a message box Tag: 152768

 - NT Domain: All objects of class User I'm writing a script to pull data from both Active Directory and NT4 Domains. The Active Directory code works just fine, and the NT4 code works great except for one thing. I'm probably just overlooking something, but all of my objects are of class User. Is there a way to tell Groups, Users, and Computers apart Under Active Directory I'm doing this with the objMember.objectCategory property. I don't think that NT4 Domains support this (at least it gave me an error). The objMember.class is what is returning "User" to me every time Any advice or assistance is greatly appreciated.

 - Help with skipping files I am writing a script to read through CSV files. The files contain 5 fields that I then parse and use to create some shortcuts on the START menu. I want to be able to have 1 script that reads through the files and adds the icons accordingly. And so far it works great. My problem is this: Not all the CSV files will be readable by all users. I hope to create several CSV files, and give only file rights to read for the users/groups that will require those shortcuts. For example: I will have a menu-common.csv file that will have shortcuts for all users. I then want one for HR, admin, receiving, shipping... to have their shortcuts. My current script is set to read them both. But if I run it as a user that does not have rights to read a CSV (like HR's CSV), the script just loops and never ends. Is there a way to set it so if it cannot read the CSV file, it will just go down the list to the next CSV? Like "On Error Goto Next Section" command. Here is my script. -------------- ' Script to create start menu folders and shortcuts based on a csv file ' by: Dan King ' 2/6/04 ' ' ' ' Option Explicit On Error Resume Next Dim ws, smenu, fs, fsr, scut, scFldr, uName, mFile, uFile Set ws = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") smenu = ws.SpecialFolders("StartMenu") Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") uName = ws.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%") mFile = "menu-common.csv" 'Common menu file name and location uFile = "menu-" & uName & ".csv" 'User menu file name and location 'Delete Existing Folders.

 - Determine logon and logoffs from which workstations Any ideas how I can script determining the last workstation a user has logged onto and logged off of? I know logins can be retrieved from AD with userstat.exe, but this does not tell me the location of the logons, nor if/when they logged off. I've also looked into parsing event logs, but events 538 and 540 did not contain workstation data, (even though there was a parameter for workstation, it was blank). Event 528 did contain the workstations, but there are not nearly as many 528's as there are 538. Any other ideas? Surely someone has done this already!!!

 - SystemParametersInfo not working with VBScript? I am trying to use the SystemParametersInfo API to change the wallpaper from a VBScript run by Windows Script Host locally on the computer. This is what I have: Dim bmpFile bmpFile = "C:\WINDOWS\WALLPAPR.BMP" Call SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER,0,bmpFile,SPIF_SENDWININICHANGE) When I run it, Windows Script Host gives me the following error information: Script: C:\changeWallpaper.vbs Line: 3 Char: 1 Error: Type mismatch: 'SystemParametersInfo' Code: 800A000D Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error Is there something I need to do prior to using SystemParametersInfo to make the VBScript recognize it as valid?

 - little squares in output text Hello and thanks in advance for any help here. I am working on a script that is taking information from a database with no line breaks and passing the information through this function that I have designed to put line breaks in near a certain column size. The ultimate destination for the text is a text file. When I run this code on a piece of text with carriage returns already in it the function outputs little boxes or NewLine control chars wherever a new line needs to happen. Does anyone know of a way to get rid of those little boxes? Thanks in advance, -Jason Function HardBreak(text, col) Dim myArray(50) lc = 0 Do Until Len(text) < col If InStrRev(text, vbCr, col) Then br = InStrRev(text, vbCr, col) myArray(lc) = Mid(text, 1, br) text = Mid(text, br + 1) Else If InStr(col - 6, text, " ") < col Then br = InStr(col - 6, text, " ") Else br = InStrRev(text, " ", col) End If myArray(lc) = Mid(text, 1, br) text = Mid(text, br + 1) End If lc = lc + 1 Loop myArray(lc) = text lc = 0 Do Until myArray(lc) = "" If myArray(lc + 1) = "" Then HardBreak = HardBreak & " " & myArray(lc) Else HardBreak = HardBreak & " " & myArray(lc) & vbNewLine End If lc = lc + 1 Loop End Function Tag: Avoiding VbScript text in title of a message box Tag: 152704

 - File System Object network overhead I have a vbscript that looks through a folder structure for the most recently updated file. I noticed that when I point it at a network folder (\\server\folder) it does quite a bit more network I/O than I would expect. No big deal when I'm at work, on our 100Mb ethernet, but dialing in from home it becomes v e r y s l o w. When I go to a DOS prompt and use "dir /s" to display the same folders, it's much quicker (less network I/O). Is this just the way it is with the FileSystemObject? I'm ready to rewrite my folder access to attach the desired folder as a drive, and use the DOS DIR command to get the info I want. Excatly what the FSO helps us avoid! -- jcf Tag: Avoiding VbScript text in title of a message box Tag: 152694

 - icon in the task bar Hello all, I have a non-rectangular form... Really, it is just a bitmap with a transparencykey and a backgroundimage with formborderstyle = none. I set my icon for the object through the property window for the form. However, when I run the application, only the title shows in the taskbar... Not the icon. Any ideas?

 - Good book? Can anyone recommend a good book to get started with scripting. I am very well versed with batch scripting and Auto-it but I would like to gain more experience so as far as I see the next logical step would be to learn vb-script. What do you think. What are some good books. Tag: Avoiding VbScript text in title of a message box Tag: 152674

 - Connection Errors Hey group. I'm having a problem with a script I'm writing. I'm writing a script to use a net use command, map a drive, connect to this mapped drive, and do a couple things. The script runs fine up to and including the net use command. After that though, it doesnt work; bascally I don't have permissions (with the script) to go to the newly mapped drive (the account I am using to run it is a domain admin). For testing purposes, I'm only trying to connect to one box. Here's a code snipit: strComputer="est213-01" strdirlist = "net use k: \\" & strComputer & "\c$" Wscript.Echo strdirlist Set doit = WshShell.Exec(strdirlist) strdirlist = "k:" Wscript.Echo strdirlist Set doit = WshShell.Exec(strdirlist) As soon as I try to connect to k:, I get errors. However, it does create k: in the first net use command (I can manually get to it). Any suggestions? Thanks. Anthony Tag: Avoiding VbScript text in title of a message box Tag: 152673

No, it cannot be removed - at least not in the context I
assume this is asked - that is, in HTML client side
scripting. (Though your approach works for stand alone.)

It is a security issue. The problem being that it is
dangerous to allow a web based app to present a popup that
looks like a Windows system popup.
