    - Hex to Decimal I would like to find the script to convert a Hex number to a decimal number. I couldn't find the function in the Window Script documentation. Actually I am trying to write an hex number into the registry, I used Reg.Write with a REG_DWORD type; but it only takes decimal number. Thanks.

    - Win32_NTLogEvent Query Security Log Hello. I try to query the Security Log of a Windows 2000 Domain Controller. I only want to query for a special time period. I#ve created the following query string: Set colLoggedEvents = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_NTLogEvent Where TimeWritten >= '"&dtmStart&"' and TimeWritten < '"&dtmEnd&"' and Logfile='Security' and EventIdentifier='644'", , 48) The dtmStart and dtmEnd Values are calculated by a Function. The Return value of this Function is string. If I execute the query I get the following error: (null): 0x80041017 In the MS KB 295821 is the clear text of this error number. It means "WBEM_E_INVALID_QUERY ". I've pasted the query from the Script Repository from MS. If I paste the Values manually (i.e.dtmStart =20040127084847.000000+060; dtmEnd=20040128084847.000000+060) I get return values!

    - VB Script - two keyboard keys at the same time in a script Hello; I was wondering how you put a command in a VB script that commands two keyboard strokes at the same time. i.e. when you want the alt button you put {alt} What I want is to put the alt key and tab at the same time; like holding the two keys at the same time. If you put in the script {alt}{tab} I assume it would consider them stroked sequencially, not at the same time. Anyone have the solution?

    - Handling Word and Excel events with parameters I'm working on a VBScript to be run in WSH. I want to handle events occuring in MS Word and Excel, but I seem to be having problems. As long as the event has no parameters, I can handle it just fine. If an event requires a parameter, the script won't process the event. Here's my code Dim boolContinu Set oApp = WScript.CreateObject("Word.Application", "oApp_" oApp.Visible = Tru oApp.Documents.Add 'Fires the NewDocument even boolContinue = Tru While boolContinu WScript.Sleep(100 Wen Sub oApp_NewDocument(ByVal Doc MsgBox "NewDocument Event fired 'boolContinue = False End Su Sub oApp_Quit( MsgBox "Quit Event fired boolContinue = Fals End Su Running the script, the Quit event is processed, but the NewDocument event never is.

    - use msvsa for vbscript debugging Somehow, a long time ago, we managed to set our NT systems up in such a way, that the MS Visual Studio Analyzer is launched automatically when a run-time error occurs while running a VBscript, displaying the relevant information. Recently we have moved to XP, and although all the tools are the same (VS6, Primal Script), we have not been able to configure our new systems to show the same behaviour. Can anyone shed some light on how to make this happen? Thanks, Rob Hegt Tag: Vb Script to Join a Nt4 Domain and add domain user to Local Admin group Tag: 152484

Currently, I use a VB Script with FileSystemObject's CopyFolder method to copy a folder (and it's sub-folders) to a shared directory. There seem to be some permission related problems with this method.... Seemingly with permissions.... What permission would I need to set on the source folder to make the script work properly? (Does the script act as SYSTEM, or as the current User? or something else?) Or is there a better way altogether? Any ideas?

    - TURN $12 INTO $12,000 NOW!!! EEP THIS SHIT YALL MY FRIEND GOT $500 LAST WEEK TRYING THIS SHIT: make extra cash GREAT WAY TO BECOME RICH...INSTANT THOUSANDS This is no scam, read it!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- HOW TO TURN $12 INTO $12,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS REALLY CAN MAKE YOU EASY MONEY!! IT WORKS !!! BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT TO THE LETTER FOR IT TO WORK!!!! : A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroup, just like you are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $12.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. : Anyway, it said that you send $2.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroup. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $12.00, right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it : All, So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! Then I invested the measly $12.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!?. Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end second week I had made a total over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. Its : Certainly worth $12.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!! : Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works?.also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 2 US $1.00 bills and place TWO inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bills will not be seen through the envelope to prevent thievery. Next, place one paper in each stating the above phrase, your name and address, and 2 $1.00 bills. What you are doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: #1) Corteney Tomson P.O. Box 55 Dupo, IL 62239 #2) Brad Taylor 6 Terry Ln. Hutchinson, KS 67501 #3) Cedric Etienne 239 Autumn Breeze Way Winter Park, FL 32792 #4) Stephen Mitchell 1977 Alcovy Trace Way Lawrenceville, GA 30045 #5) Melissa Martinez 15440 sw 74 cir ct #607 Miami, FL 33193 #6) Maurice Sawyers 49 Middle Rose St Trenton, NJ 08618 STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc?.) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups, message board. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!---- DIRECTIONS----HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS, MESSAGE BOARD----------Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your : Cursor to the bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer memory. Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name to the list. Step 3) save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different sittings, you'll always have this file to go back to. : Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.) Just example you log on any search engine like yahoo. com,google. com,altavista. com,excite. com then you search with this subject ? millionaire message board? or ?money making message board? or ? employment message board? or ?money making discussions? or ?money making forum? or ?business message board? etc. You will find thousand & thousand message board. Click one by one then you will find the option post a new message. : Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click the post message button. You're done with your first one!. : Congratulations? THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it, and it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup! ** REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS OR MESSAGE BOARD YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU EILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! You may eventually can rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT. ** : Now the WHY part: Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example). So then I Made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $2.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional :$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional $625.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625.00! With an original investment of only $12.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $12.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is, do you realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So can you afford $12.. and see if it really works?? I think so? People have said, 'what if the plan is played out and no one sends you: the money? So what are the chances of that happening when there are tons of new honest users and new honest people who are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are willing to give it a try? Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with thousands of those joining the actual Internet. AND YES YOU HAVE TO SEND THE MONEY FOR THIS TO WORK!!!dont try not to,IT WONT WORK TRUST ME Tag: Vb Script to Join a Nt4 Domain and add domain user to Local Admin group Tag: 152468

    - vbscript and kiosk question Hello, I have written some vbscript that compares the timestamp of a file written to a server against the actual time of the server. The file on the server is generated by a kiosk application that sends a request up to an asp page which in turn writes out a bit of information to a file, which in turn constantly makes the timestamp of the file change. When the user wants to check if any of kiosks are still running they can load the status monitor .asp page that quickly lets them know the last time any of the kiosks have pinged the server with a status update. At any rate, every now and then, even though the kiosks are running and sending pings to the server. The kiosk status monitor page reports that some of the kiosks are not running. I'm in no way an expert vbscript programmer and I was hoping that someone on this list would be kind enough to look at "is_kiosk_active(whatKioskFileName, whatTimeOffset)" function to see if they could possibly provide any clues as to why this script fails sometimes.

    - vbscript and kiosk question Hello, I have written some vbscript that compares the timestamp of a file written to a server againts the actual time of the server. The file on the server is generated by a kiosk application that sends a request up to an asp page which in turn writes out a bit of information to a file, which in turn constantly makes the timestamp of the file change. When the user wants to check if any of kiosks are still running they can load the status monitor .asp page that quickly lets them know the last time any of the kiosks have pinged the server with a status update. At any rate, every now and then, even though the kiosks are running and sending pings to the server. The kiosk status monitor page reports that some of the kiosks are not running. I'm in no way an expert vbscript programmer and I was hoping that someone on this list would be kind enough to look at "is_kiosk_active(whatKioskFileName, whatTimeOffset)" function to see if they could possibly provide any clues as to why this script fails sometimes. The passed in parameters of the is_kiosk_active are as follows: whatKioskFileName = This is basically the name of the kiosk file sitting on the server that the kiosk itself creates and updates over time by sending messages to an asp page to update it whatTimeOffset = This is the time in minutes that the kiosk has to report to the status monitoring page. If the kiosk doesn't report to the server within this timeframe than the kiosk is considered down and not running. Any suggestions would be very very appreciated!

If I type in the command prompt on my server : cmd.exe /c echo Y| CACLS "J:\TheFolder" /E /C /P "Everybody":F All is working fine ... The rights are correctly set. The "Everybody" account have full acces to the folder. Well I try to use it in an ASP file with the following code: Sub ChangeFolderSettings(strFolderPath,strUser,strRights) Dim caclscommand Dim whs Dim whsRun Caclscommand = "cmd.exe /c echo Y| CACLS """ & strFolderPath Caclscommand = Caclscommand & """ /E /C /P """ & strUser & """:" & strRights Set whs = server.createobject("WScript.Shell") intError = whs.run(Caclscommand,0,true) If intError <> 0 Then response.write "<br>Error in command CACLS: "& intError &"<br>"& Caclscommand End If Set whsrun = nothing Set whs = nothing End Sub .....

    - Object doesn't support this property (Urgent) Sorry if not the appropriate newsgroup.. We are using an html page that provides Office shortcuts. This web page contains a dll with a function that accepts 'program name' as a parameter. When the user loads the webpage it displays ok and prompts that user that it contains unsafe ActiveX controls, do you want to continue. The users reply yes and it then proceeds to download the dll (its actually in a CAB file). However, when the user then clicks on one of the shortcuts it errors with 'object doesn't support this property or method'. I'm not convinced that the dll has been installed, I've searched the clients machine and registry and cannot find the dll. 1. Am I right in thinking that the dll hasn't been installed if I can't find it on the clients machine and in the registry 2. What could be preventing this dll from installing - the customer is big on controlling security & permissions Thanks Pazza Tag: Vb Script to Join a Nt4 Domain and add domain user to Local Admin group Tag: 152428

Access is denied to this object. ''''''''''''''''''''''' It works on my production server and this is happening on my development server. The only real difference between the two environments are that development has Windows 2000 SP4 with most of the security patches. It use to work but I believe after my network admin added SP4 and the patches, I started receiving these errors. Is there a workaround? Or another patch to run? I read many post on how I would need to give read rights to ISUR_SERVERNAME and IWAM_SERVERNAME on the dll and perhaps even the folder that it sits in. On my production server there are no rights for these users. So, I don't think that's it. I tried giving my dll those rights, but I still get the error message. Basically, the two environments are the same (including rights) except for the fact that my development machine is more patched. One more thing, my dll is a proxy dll (com+), so in component services it refers to a database server that also has this dll. I compared the permissions in my development and production and they are the same. Like I said, it use to work but believe this came about after our network admin added SP4 and the patches.

Below is the script that i am using to join the domain. However it needs to be able to parse the domain administrator details to join the domain.

Set net = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
local = net.ComputerName DomainName = "MyDomain"
UserAccount = "testuser"
set group = GetObject("WinNT://"& local &"/Administrators")
group.Add "WinNT://"& DomainName &"/"& UserAccount &""

Any help on the above code or other code would be great.

Thanks
