    - Parse Text File Does anyone have an example of how I can read(LOOP) thru a text file and write multiple text output files based upon input read out of the text file.

    - Select Case Question: So Easy? Dear All I am getting confused with a select case statement and I would like some help. Dim Day1Max Dim TargetLow Dim TargetHigh Day1Max = 55 TargetLow = 63 TargetHigh = 90 Select case Cint(Day1Max) Case >= 1 and <= Cint(TargetLow) Day1Graph = 1 Case Cint(Day1Max) >= Cint(TargetLow) and Cint(Day1Max) =< Cint(TargetHigh) Day1Graph = 2 Case Cint(Day1Max) > Cint(TargetHigh) Day1Graph = 3 case else Day1Graph = 4 End select What I am testing is: If Day1Max < 62 then Day1Graph = 1 If Day1Max >= 63 and <= 89 then Day1Graph = 2 If Day1Max >= 90 the Day1Graph = 3 I can't hard code the values because the variable values are returned from a stored procedure and vary with each person. This select statement always returns Day1Graph as 4. How would I change the Select Case statement to work? Do I need to Cint the value? Thanks...

    - Reading a log file being written to by another process Hi, I want to write a script that will read and parse a text log file for errors. The log file is being written to by another process, so grows as events occur. Rather than open it for read and reparse it each time, what options do I have to optimize it so I don't have to re-parse the whole thing every time? It is time stamped, so remembering that and reading each line until I find it again is an option, but seems clunky. Using ADO streams looks more interesting, given the ".position" method, but I gather I need to read the whole file into memory to use that. Any other bright ideas here? I know it's not the right forum, but, for example, would I be better off doing it with a perl module? Cheers Strider Tag: Renaming a registry Key using WMI Tag: 142019

    - DataBase error Hi all Ok so i have two databases on my ISP server. One is the working one and the other is a backup. They are named "Data.mdb and DataBackup.mdb" I have updated the Data.mdb database on my local PC and uploaded it to the server. Now i get this error: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation must use an updateable query. It works on my local PC using ISS without any errors and it updates without faults. If i use the DataBackup.mdb database on the server it works fine. The only thing I did was remove 23 recorders. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Joe Tag: Renaming a registry Key using WMI Tag: 142017

    - accessing document.script hello everybody, I have script in VBS. when I translate it into JS I can't access "document.script". generally, that script cooperates with html page, which contains its own title and: <script> var IEvar = 3.14; showIEvar = function () { return IEvar; } </script> the purpose of VBS script is to look after particular Internet Explorer window that contains this html page. when found, a reference to IE window is returned and VBS script can execute functions and set variables hard-coded in this html page. when I try to code the same in JS I end with the following error message: oIE.document.parentWindow.document.script is null or not an object code: 800A138F I did search google for "document.script" but what I read is still mysterious to me.. I suppose oIE which points to IE window is set correctly since I can execute the following statement: Wscript.Echo(oIE.document.title); I would appreciate any suggestions and help from both js or vbs scripters.

    - 'rundll32.exe - Invalid Current Directory' message generated by login script SFLogin.vbs runs from an NT4 server at user login (netlogon.bat serves as a stub loader that calls SFLogin.bat). When SFLogin.bat attempts to run an .exe, sometimes NT4 Workstation hosts get this error: "Rundll32.exe - Invalid Current Directory. The process cannot switch to the startup directory to c:\winnt. Select OK to set current directory to c:\winnt, or select cancel to exit." Would anybody have a general explanation as to why this is happening? That is: does this have something to do with a "working directory?" What is a working directory? What is a current directory? When netlogon.bat calls SFLogin.vbs, what's going on? What's happening when SFLogin.vbs calls another .exe? Do these processes run on the server, or on the client? Hopefully a general explanation will help me figure out instances of this error.

    - Import a csv-file into MS access with the aid of vbScript Hi, Can someone give me a hand howto import an text/csvfile into access with vbscript? I have gather some loggings of arcserve from several of our shop-servers in one 500k csvfile. I tried working with Excel (also with vbscript) and it worked: importing. The spreadsheet was some 5000 rows. I wanted to use autofilter to make a few selections, BUT the autofilter-function works only with appr. 2700 rows, so I had to find another way to Display de loggings... So, I am NOT looking for VBA code but for vbscript code And if you can tell me how to run/make a macro within Access that would make me (and some of my collegues) very glad..

    - Null values in Win32_MappedLogicalDisk Ok, I've figured out how get the network drives off a remote machine, but I'm having a new problem... Problem is that when I use the below code, the ProviderName property is Null (supposed to be a string of where drive is mapped to). BTW, I'm using XP on an AD domain. I am an admin of all workstations in domain. Why? Where is this set at? Is there no hope? Code for getting Network drives for remote computers: strComputer = "remotecomputername" Set wmiWin32 = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colItems = wmiWin32.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_LogonSessionMappedDisk") For Each objItem in colItems set obj = wmiWin32.Get(objItem.Dependent,0) Wscript.echo obj.DeviceID Wscript.echo obj.ProviderName Next Win32_LogonSessionMappedDisk's Dependent returns object for Win32_MappedLogicalDisk for logged on user. Supposedly, the ProviderName property is where the drive is mapped to. NOTE: ProviderName is still null when I call directly from Win32_MappedLogicalDisk on my local workstation.

    - Creating 90000 users and placing randomly them into thirty OU's I've found a script or two through the news groups (here and on the WSH group) that allows me to create a couple of thousand users. Now what I'm trying to figure out is how to get those users to "shuffle" themselves into one of thirty OU's under the users. DOM |_OU1 | | | |_users | |_bob | |_doug |_OU2 | |_users |_bob2 |_doug2 and so on...up to thirty OU's with the 90000 users being placed (or like cards, "dealt") into one of the thirty groups randomly.

    - CLOB field and GetChunk Hi there, Hope someone will be able to help with that weird problem I'm facing. I'm querying a CLOB field from an Oracle 8 DB, in an ASP page. I manage to retrieve the value of my CLOB field by using the GetChunk (the value is an HTML code). My problem is that each time, the first 6 or 7 characters of my code are missing (but when looking directly in the DB, I see that the HTML codes in my table are fine). For example, I've one of my code starting with : <script language="JavaScript"> pp409217=window. open ('','','scrollbars=no,resize=no,height=200,wid th=350'); Once retrieved with GetChunk, I get : language="JavaScript"> pp409217=window. open ('','','scrollbars=no,resize=no,height=200,wid th=350'); (<script is missing). The code I use is : sql_query = "" sql_query = sql_query + " select text as code " sql_query = sql_query + " from rendering" sql_query = sql_query + " where id = " & id 'cnnprod is my connection object set requete = cnnprod.execute(sql_query) tempcod = requete.fields("code").getChunk(15000) response.write tempcod Does anyone have an idea of what would be causing the problem ?

    - Newb Help: How do I find out what does in CreateObject() Hi vbscript guru's. I am a php mainly but php won't cut it in this situation so I think I'm looking to vbs and/or javascript to hand off the variables to php. I'm a vbs Noob so bear with me if my terminology is wrong. Here is my situation. I have a series of IE Plugins to check for (Flash, Real Audio, if the user is using AoL, etc, etc,) I see through searching that the CreateObject() is used with some error catching to see if the Object is present. Error mean no plugin no error means its running Now what I am wondering is how do I know what goes in the ()? Is there a list that IE can spit out or something in my registry i can lookup, or am I going to each of the major plug in makers and asking them? Perhaps there is an online resource for this... Any help or direction would be appreciated. Cheers and thanks to all in advance, Gary Tag: Renaming a registry Key using WMI Tag: 141863

    - HTA (mshta.exe) won't terminate if java applet is running under XP Hello everybody, I searched the groups for days ... Following Problem: I have an HTA with a java applet in it. Works fine. And when I close it, the window is away. But the mshta.exe process is still running and won't terminate. I think it's because mshta.exe is waiting for the applet to close. On an HTML page ist works. And the other thing: this problem occurs only under windows xp. w2k,ME,98 will terminate mshta.exe without waiting for the applet. The applet is running with the actual Sun VM Java 1.4.1_02 and NOT with MS VM. How can I unload or stop the applet, so mshta.exe will be terminated on XP?

    - VBScript Word Automation Table Error Hi all, I'm using VBScript to create a Word doc from a web page. Everything was going fine until I tried to add a table to the doc, then I get an error which I can't account for. This is my code: function test dim oWord dim oDoc set oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application") oWord.Visible = True oWord.Documents.Add set oDoc = oWord.ActiveDocument oDoc.PageSetup.Orientation = 1 oDoc.Tables.Add Range:=oWord.Selection.Range, NumRows:=2, NumColumns:=3 oWord.Selection.TypeText "Ben was here" set oWord = nothing end function This runs fine if I comment out the oDoc.Tables.Add line. I have tried approaching the tables call from all directions, eg. oWord.ActiveDocument.Tables.Add, as well as the Range call, with no luck. I'm running IE6 and Office XP. Any help would be greatly appreciated :o) Regards, Ben Empson -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/ Tag: Renaming a registry Key using WMI Tag: 141815

Hello guys!

Is it possible to rename a registry Key or a registry
value name using WMI? I have gone through the all the
methods and properties StdRegProv Class in root\default
and found nada. I only want this script in JScript or
VBsript without loading any extended registry DLL. Just
using the WinMgmts: Moniker.

Anyone got a suggestion on this?

Thanks for your support.

Hi

There is no rename methods I'm afraid. Delete old/create new key or value using
WMI (or WSH registry methods if possible) is a workaround.
