Script to report file version, description...
Gday all,
I'm trying to write a script that will go through the entire hard
drive, give me the version number and also extended properties of each
file on the PC, but only for files that will report a version number.
I found an excellent script on cwashington.netreach.net by Voltaire
Toledo that does the version number bit, and I've attempted to modify
it to report things like Description, Author etc. When I run it I get
the following error:
getver.vbs(49, 5) Microsoft VBScript runtime error: Object required:
'objFolder'
I don't quite understand this, as its clearly defined.
Here is the script (with my hacked modifications):
' GetVer.VBS
' Example: CScript.EXE GetVer.VBS /f:"C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\local settings" /r:c:\test.txt
'Option Explicit
Dim objArgs: Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
Dim objFSo: Set objFSo =
CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim sHelpString, sRootFolder, sReport, sReportName
sHelpString = "GETVER.VBS - Tool to list all files that have a version
number in" & vbcrlf _
& "a specified folder and its subfolders" & vbcrlf & vbcrlf
_
& "/F:<path> - Specify the root folder to gather the
information" & VbCRLf _
& "/R:<path> - Specify the file to produce the output to. It
will" & vbCRLf _
& " overwrite the file if it already exists"
If objArgs.Count = 0 Then Wscript.Echo sHelpString: Wscript.Quit
If objArgs(0) = "/?" Then Wscript.Echo sHelpString: Wscript.Quit
Dim I
For I = 0 to objArgs.Count - 1
If UCase(Left(objArgs(I),3)) = "/F:" Then sRootFolder =
Trim(Mid(objArgs(I),4))
If UCase(Left(objArgs(I),3)) = "/R:" Then sReportName =
Trim(Mid(objArgs(I),4))
Next
Set sReport = objFSo.CreateTextFile(sReportName, True)
RecurseFldr (sRootFolder)
Sub RecurseFldr(sFolderName)
Dim oFolder, cFolder, cFile, sUnit, sVer
If not objFSo.FolderExists(sFolderName) Then
Wscript.Echo "Error: " & chr(34) & sFolderName & chr(34) & " does
not exist or is no longer available"
Wscript.Quit
End If
Set oFolder = objFSo.GetFolder(sFolderName)
Set cFolder = oFolder.Subfolders
Set cFile = oFolder.Files
'Stack this procedure for every folder in the collection
For Each sUnit In cFolder
' Begin my modifications here :)
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(sUnit)
For i = 0 to 33
arrHeaders(i) = objFolder.GetDetailsOf(objFolder.Items, i)
Next
For Each strFileName in objFolder.Items
For i = 0 to 33
sreport.Writeline arrHeaders(i) _

Next
Next

Newbie problem--should be easy
I am brand new at this and virtually totally clueless; the terms and =
syntax are a complete mystery; nothing like writing up bat files.. (I'm =
going to get a book on this, but that's going to have to wait until next =
payday at least.)
Meantime I tried to edit a simple script I'd seen done before for =
another purpose which looked like it could be altered to simply copy a =
file or two from here to there. Figured once I got it figured out I'd =
add it into the more complicated vbs script I's working on.
I'm trying to copy and concatenate files.
Figured this looked like it would work. It does not.
Set WSHShell =3D WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
rcmd =3D "copy /y /b d:\files\text.txt+d:\files\test2.txt =
f:\temp\new.eml"
WshShell.Run(rcmd)
What am I doing wrong? What would work? Tag: Script to extract driver information from .inf files Tag: 147027
Copying SID to SIDHistory
Hi all,
I am new to vbscript and I am trying to copy the SID from one
Domain account to the SIDhistory of an account in a different domain.
This is what I was thinking:
Set user = GetObject(LDAP path to user in old domain)
SID = user.Get("objectSid")
WScript.Echo SID
Set NewUser = GetObject(LDAP path to user in new domain)
NewUser.Put "sIDHistory", SID
NewUser.SetInfo
I get an error that says "a constraint violation has occured". Like I
said, I'm a noob so I may be on the wrong path or missing some critical
steps. I would appreciate any help, or if someone has done this, maybe a
clue as to which way to approach this problem.
Thanks,

Tricky Text File
I've combined alot of the things that I've learned from this newsgroup and
created some really cool text manipulating programs. I'd like to thank all
of you that have helped me with my struggles these last few weeks (Chad, Dag
Sunde, Collin, and Michael Harrington - just to name a few). I'm really
amazed how slick these little programs work.
For my next task, I'd like to do something very similar. The difference is
that there can be upto 3 Product lists for each customer.
http://www.swandust.com/IN2.txt is a sample file. I'd like the output
(output.csv) to display something like the following:

All 'Domain Users" group to local 'Power Users' group
Hello all
I have several hundred workstations that I need to add the 'Domain Users'
group to the local machines 'Power Users' group. I assume the easiest way
to do this is with a group policy and a login script. I found the following
script in a previous posting and tried to modify it for my purposes without
much luck. If someone could tell me if I'm on the right track with this
script and how to modify it, I'd be grateful. I'm running a windows 2k
domain with all windows XP workstations.
Thanks for the help

Microsoft VBScript runtime error: ActiveX component can't create object 'GetObject'
I have written a simple VBscript to find out the free disk space on a

for each Disk in WMI.InstancesOf("Win32_LogicalDisk")
if Disk.DeviceID = "C:" Then
WScript.Echo "Instance:", Disk.Path_.Relpath , "Free space = " ,

I saved this script to disk.vbs and i run it using cscript command on

cscript disk.vbs
This script runs on some machines perfectly. On some machines it gave
the following error : Microsoft VBScript runtime error: ActiveX
component can't create object 'GetObject'. I searched thru many google
groups and i found that the error might be that "host is missing WMI
capabilities".
I don't know how to enable this functionality. Is it a service which
is stopped on that particular machine? Is this some different error
altogether? Can anyone please help me out on this. I am new to
scripting so i appreciate ur help. Thanks.

Getting hta "refreshed" from script
I have an hta in which I change some text in a table element to tell the
user what is happening.
After changing the text to "Loading", the script moves onto an xml load and
transform.
The table does not seem to get re-displayed in time and the transform
functions seems to absorb all the resources while it happens (10 seconds).
After the transform, the table is updated again to "Viewing". This is the
first change that is rendered.
If I put a msgbox in front of the load and transform, when the message is
displayed, the table is updated.
If I comment out the load and transform, the table is updated too
Anyone know how I can force the rendering to happen before the transform
"takes over"
TIA

User's email address is not the same as user NT name
(userid). For example, email address for user NT name
(Ian) will have an email address (icmpbell@yahoo.com). I
thought I maybe able to use Richard's script to call my
file "emails.txt" and be able to associate which email
address belong to that user NT name and then send a
notification to the user that his/her user NT name will
expired on this date. I apologize if I am not explaining
correctly.
Let say I have a file "emails.txt" containing
icmpbell@yahoo.com. A script will look into "emails.txt"
file and distinguished this email's address associated to
userid "Ian", then send an Email Notification to Ian that
his password will expired on November 28, 2003 at 10:38:06.
First, I will write a script using Richard's script to
output a file of ALL the userid that will expire within 10
days, then I have to manually produce "emails.txt" file,
unless someone know a script that can import those email
addresses to the rightful userid.
Do anybody know if my "emails.txt" may need to contain
both userid and email address in order for the script to
function? If so, how? Is it per line based on my sample
below.......
Ian
icmpbell@yahoo.com
Or do it need to be listed with a comma like this......
Ian, icmpbell@yahoo.com
Very appreciated for your time and willingness to assist
me.

copy file
Hello,
I'm new to this, trying to make a copy of a file in the same folder as the
original but with a new name. I've found that CopyFile doesn't work for the
same directory. And because of certain restrictions, sometimes the pathing
will be UNC, so I can't shell out & use the command line 'copy' command.
Is my only option some kind of file-copy to a new directory, file-rename,
file-move back? These are binary files, so I haven't tried using the
createfile methods - should those work?
TIA.

Creating users, and their home directory
Hi All,
I have a list of 90 users that I need to import into AD. I wrote a script
that does this but it doesn't create their home folder automatically. So
for instance, if I set the user's home folder to \\servername\share\folder,
and set it to a Z drive or something, that folder is not created. However,
when I manually create, or copy a user, it does create that folder
automatically (with the appropriate permissions etc.). Is there an easy way
to get it to create that home folder automatically, without having to make
the script do all of that work? Maybe a copy of an existing user? There is
an article on MSDN about copying a user, but only for SELECTED attributes.
I want ALL of the attributes copied (except username of course).
Thanks,

Best way to enumerate installed applications
Hi there,
How can I list the applications installed on Win98 machines...? The list
displayed by Add/Remove programs would be a good start... anyone know how to
get this? I'd preferably like to know the executable path and name as well
as the application friendly name.
Any other suggestions for auditing PC software...?
Note that this is preliminary work in preperation for implementing SMS
Server 2003 so no point suggesting I use a server based tool like SMS...

scrolling popups
Hi,
Does anyone know how to set the scroll
attribute on a popup. For instance if I
write this:
set p=window.createpopup
p.document.body.scroll="yes"
p.show 0,0,100,100
I don't see any scroll bars. I know a popup
can have scroll bars because if I write it
this way I not only see scroll bars but a
sunken border as well:
set p=window.createpopup
p.document.write "x"
p.show 0,0,100,100

Bulk change of AD Remote Access permission attrib
Hi,
Trying to do a bulk change of the AD attribute for RAS Permission from
"Deny" to "Allow". Have looked up the Technet script centre on this and
have come up with:
Set objUser = Get Object ("LDAP://cn= etc...correct LDAP path)
objUser.Put "msNPAllowDialin", TRUE
objUser.SetInfo
While this changes this particular attribute as seen in ADSI Edit, it does
not change the AD Users and Computers user account "Dial In" tab attributes
at all. I have no need for any of the other attributes mentioned in the
script centre article and do not want them set. Manually changing the
"Dial In" tab to "Allow Access" changes only the "msNPAllowDialin" booleen
to TRUE but changes no other attributes mentioned in the same Technet
article.
Obviously another attribute to set but unknown what. AD is mixed mode.
Thanks in advance for any assistance. Tag: Script to extract driver information from .inf files Tag: 146909

Open File dialog
Hi,
Some days ago, I've posted a message to NG, a question about how to call a
windows OpenFile dialog, which McKirahan response it with a code example
(listed below).
Now, these example doesn't work well for me, because I need that valid
selection are only for files and not for folders.
And this example works fine if selected item is a folder, but if the
selected item is a file, the BrowseForFolder method return null.
Any suggestions or workaround???

WshShell issue with WScript
I'm writing code for a VB Script task in a SQL Server DTS
package. Snagged the following code to run a command line
app and want to use the bit where it uses WScript.Sleep to
wait until the executable has finished.
However, both in the DTS task and if I place the following
code in a VB standard .exe I get a run-time error when I
reference WScript.
What's going on? Note, the command line exe does get
called and does run.
Code:
Dim WshShell, oExec
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("path to .exe")
Do While oExec.Status = 0
WScript.Sleep 100

Need to write script/batch file to delete selected files
I have a server that we use as a file repository for our daily reports.
The reports are *.txt files, all of them. They come from another domain,
and are "canned" reports that I have no control over.
Each day, we have up to 35-40 of these reports, and the naming convention
has been:
98129918.txt
where:
98 = year
12 = month
99 = denotes the Month End file, which I need to save
18 = unit reporting
The daily outputs the exact same naming convention, with the exception of
the third node (the 99 above) corresponding to the day of the month (00 to
31).
There are over 70,000 files in this directory, taking up 12 gigs on a hard
drive, so the function needs to be automated.
I need to write a script or batch file to save all of the xxyy99zz.txt
files, and to delete all of those not matching that filter from a date
beginning say around 1/1/2002. Anything prior to 1/1/2002 would need only
the month-end files (the ones with ____99__.txt naming), and anything after
that would need to exist until such time I modified the script to have
another cut-off date.
Anyone have any ideas as to how to accomplish this? I am not very fluent in
WSH.

Question Title: Accessing Win32 API using vbscript
Author: Spidercide
Points: 500
Date: 11/10/2003 08:07AM MST
I am trying to use Win32 API's with vbscript. Specifically I am trying
to use FindWindowLike to see if I already have an instance of Excel
open. In my travels I have learned that you can not access Win32 API's
from vbscript(with good reason).
I know I have to create a secondary .ocx(control) file to enable me to
access the win API functionality.
I was looking around and I found a nice solution at
http://www.ahml.lib.il.us/pfw/VBS.html
He has a sample of how to do it, but it requires two other .ocx files
and these files are not supplied. He suggests buying a book "Windows:
Scripting Secrets" by Tobias Weltner and use the two .ocx files
supplied. Went and picked up the paperback, no CD no text copy of
files inside.
Does anyone know where i can get the two files(clipboard.ocx and
winmanag.ocx) from this book.
Thanks in advance. Tag: Script to extract driver information from .inf files Tag: 146866

Problem with CopyHere and Windows XP
Hello
I have a problem with a simple script that should copy a folder.
The script works with W2K but on Windows XP nothing is copied.
dim wsshell
dim Target
dim Source
set wsshell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
set Target = wsshell.NameSpace("E:\")
Source = "\\192.168.115.247\Backup\Backup*"
Target.CopyHere Source, FOF_NOCONFIRMATION + FOF_NOCONFIRMMKDIR
set Source = nothing
set Target = nothing
set wsshell = nothing
'object.CopyFolder' instead works fine but I like to see a progress
dialog while copying.
I found a message <3C0C8F69.AFEF2133@hydro.com> that says Windows XP has
a bug processing wildcards. Can anyone confirm this.
TIA
