    - AD sites Hi all, I would like to write a login script for our Finance department. Half of the department are located at site1 and half at site2. I'd like an IF statement in the script that would state: IF users site = site1 then map printer1 ELSE map printer2 The sites are defined in AD. I know that I could create a separate OU and a different login script, but if this is possible I'd like to do it this way. Can anyone hlp at all? Thanks, Gay. Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190126

    - Excel Sheet manipulation from VB Hello, The situation in my code: VB has reached the last row for data entry in an excel spreadsheet's current worksheet. Prior arrangement requires me to start data entry on a new sheet. The task I need to accomplish: Get VB to copy the current sheet (then I can blank out filled cells to start afresh), or (preferably) open the blank template, and copy out the empty sheet to existing .xls file (move to end). Then finally, I need to close the .xlt and set focus on new sheet in .xls. Also, I need to just switch easily between sheets inside the .xls. I've copied below the required code in VBE: Workbooks.Open Filename:= _ "C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\MyTemplate.xlt", Editable:= _ True Sheets("Sheet1").Copy After:=Workbooks("MySheet.xls").Sheets(1) ActiveWindow.ActivateNext ActiveWindow.Close Anyone have some ideas about converting the above to VB? Much Thanks, Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190118

    - Help needed Hello forum, I am new to scripting and need some help. I have manged to piece together code that does most of what i need. The finishing touches would be the following. Oh the script creates machine acounts in AD from a spreadsheet. What I need the script to do now is to output a log file of success or failure of creation of computer accounts. Also the log files file name needs to be in the format Compscreated110406.log. the last digits indicating the date the script ran.

    - Using MSComDlg.CommonDialog to make a Directory Browser in VBScrip Hi, I am having a problem with VBScript and the common dialog (MSComDlg.CommonDialog). What I am trying to do is build a dialog that allows me to select a target directory. I am trying to copy this functionality from the Microsoft Word 2003 Dialog where a user can change the default path for documents. Tools - Options - File Locations - Documents - Modify. I know about the function Shell.Application - BrowseForFolder but it does look as good as the Office Dialog I want to simulate. So really in the code below I want to make it only browse directories and remove the file filter (Files of type:) - how can this be done. As well I want to make it only display directories and not list any files. Enough waffle - here is the code. Thanks, Ward.

    - Help needed with setting registry premissions We are in the process of locking down workstations at our company and after doing so many of the applications we use don't work properly. We have identified the registry keys that need permission changes (there are 4 per user) Is there a way we can write a script that will run under a system context that will change these permissions in the registry? We have to modify the key permissions to EVERYONE with FULL ACCESS on 4 keys. Thanks for any insight! -Fran- Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190113

    - decoding REG_BINARY entries hey all, does anyone know how to decode the REG_BINARY entries in the registry? I am able to retrieve the raw data, but I don't know how to make any sense of it... for example, if i want to see which services are loading in which order, i look at hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\grouporderlist /V base /T REG_BINARY, and i get the following data returned... 120000000E00000001000000020000000300000004000000 05000000060000000700000008000000090000000A0000000B0000000C0000000D0000000F000000 100000001100000012000000 I only used this as an example, what I am actually trying to do is query DHCP servers for the 044 entries (WINS Servers) (HKLM|Software\Microsoft\DHCPServer\Configuration\OptionInfo\044).. I know the string value (IP address of the WINS servers), and I can actually do a reg compare to see if the servers are configured with the proper WINS servers, so I guess I'm just curious if anyone has been able to figure this out... Do I need a special decoder ring? (Drink Ovaltine!) Thanks in advance... Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190112

    - Active Directory Migration Tool and Scripting Hi all, Firstly, please let me know if there's a better group to post to. I'm writing a vbscript based on the ADMT v3. I've got everything running the way I want, but I'd like to add some event handling. I'm trapping status events by using the method described in the template.vbs file: Sub Task_Status(lngEventType, strObjName, lngStatusType, objMessages) 'do stuff End Sub The only problem I have is with handling objMessages... I can't seem to make any sense of it. I understand it's a system.array, and that the objects are of type system.__comObject. I can't seem to find any info on actually retrieving the messages. Help!

    - Simulate (fake) drag/drop + button click behavior using VBScript Hi all, I would like to write a script to automate some task, but this task requires the use of a GUI based application that can only use its GUI for input (so no command line parameters). This GUI application is not mine, and I cannot change it in any way. Let's call this GUI application GUIAPP. The script would go over a list of files (this I can do myself :-), and for every file, the following should happen 1) have the script fake a drag and drop of this file on the GUIAPP (so that it accepts the file as input) 2) the script has to click the ok button; this button triggers a "Save As..." window 4) the script should fill in some string of my choice for the file name 5) the script should click the "Save" button This must be possible using OLE, I would think?

    - Scan AD Computers for text file Our users have a flag file at the root of their profiles (C:\Docume~1\%USERNAME%), based on whether or not they received our printer migration logon script. I'd like to scan all of these computers to see who has the flag file, but I've never used VB to pull names of computers from AD before. Does anybody have a generic canned script that will pull names of computers from AD to check for a file on each computer? Thanks for any help or suggestions! Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190034

    - Thumbnailing hi-res jpegs Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right group for this, so if anyone knows a better group, please let me know. I have a web application that thumbnails hi-res jpeg's on the fly, up to some 200-300 images at a time. It runs on ASP using VBScripts. With the latest camera's, file sizes and 2GB cards the process is becoming very slow. I have been looking around for a better component to use in my asp pages. At the moment I am using 'dImage'. I have tried a few others but they run at the same speed. The process I am running creates small thumbnails and saves them to disk before displaying them through the browser. This way if they are required for view again the thumbnail does not have to be created again. Using image browsing software produces fast thumbnails, why can I not find something in a web component that will do the same. Any help much appreciated. Cheers, Blinky. Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190023

    - Convert string to corresponding ASCII character Hi, Quick question...if I have a string (let's say it just consisted of "123"), what would be the vbscript syntax to output the corresponding ascii chars to the screen - e.g. in this example to programmatically derive an output of "061 062 063"...? Obviously the other way round would be response.write chr(61) & chr(62) & chr(63), but I don't know the converse Thanks for any assistance Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190016

    - Reading Event Logs I have a vbscript that processes the event logs on several remote servers, compares the collection against a event list to report and another list of excludes to ignore. It works very well on all but one server server in our company and it looks like the connection is hanging. I added a echo statement to show me how many events were being returned from the 24hr window query but it never seems to get the collection. My question is is there a way to set timeouts on WMI queries and/or understand what is making this server look like it hangs? Thanks for any help. Dale Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 190010

    - Is there a size limit to text input? Hello to all. I hope this is posted in the correct forum. If not, m apologies, and please correct me. I'm very glad to have found you. I'm actually a Flash developer, whic increasingly seems to mean I'll be asked how to do Everything. A client wants to build a form in .NET which allows users to paste ver large blocks of text into input fields. People have mentioned 'tex fields' and 'textareas'. So I need to know: 1] is there a difference? 2] what is the capacity of each? 3] Not for nothing: is there a constant 'max number'?

    - Recursing through folders without changing Last Accessed Date HI all, I am writing a script which should enumerate the Folder permissions of a share. I was successful in doing this until i get a new requirement which says that the Last Accessed dates should not be changed. I am using for each subfol in fol.subfolders to get the subfolder properties (i.e, Path,size) but what i believe is, it is the culprit which is changing the date. I tried using Directory.GetDirectory to get the subdirectories but that attempt also went into vain as it is also doing the same thing. I tried using GetLastAccessTime and SetLastAccessTime for setting the earlier time but to give the path as input i need to get it by using fol.subfolder property only. Please suggest me in this regard . I need some alternate solution for this Tag: Screen Saver Tag: 189995

You could do something as simple as a file copy. An example is here:

Well without creating an install for the screen saver, what you can do is
have the .scr file in a locaion on your network and simply copy that file to
the local %system32% folder... here is an example

Dim objFileSys

Set objFileSys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

objFileSys.CopyFile "C:\Foldername\screensaver.scr", "C:\Windows\System32"

End

This is probably the easiest way without creating an install.
