    - does anyone have a snipped handy for this? I need to search all files in the local computer for files owned by a specific user and delete all files of a specific type. I think I have some code to do this that does a select from CMIv2 for all files in the local computer. I do not see a property of the objFile that shows who the owner is. The second requirement is for all *.lnk files (I can easily find these files using the Extension property) I need to force the WorkingDirectory to a specific path. I have only been able to find CreateShortcut and DeleteShortcut methods. I have not found a ChangeShortcut method. Does such a method exist? Mike Tag: How run a Script with high privileges??

    - CDO - Access several Mailboxes Hi I=B4m relatively new to CDO and cant seem to wrap my head around the procedure of Session.Logon. I have a number of resources (cars) set up as Mailboxes in Exchange. These are put into a resource group and I have user-account that has full access to this group of mailboxes. Now I would like to be able to log on to the Exchange server as this "full-access-user" from a website. Can this be done? It seems to me the only way to log on to Exchange is to specify a certain Mailbox through the Session.Logon method. Fine, but how do i control who has access-rights? The only thing supplied is the mailaddress or alias, and the servername... How do I identify myself? I do not want to allow an anonymous_user-account or the everyone-account full access to every mailbox I have. Sorry if I seem a bit confused, but that=B4s because I am.... Thanks!

    - Include all files in subfolders Hi Everyone. I have developed a script that will display the name and creation time of files listed in a directory, but I need to display all files in all subfolders as well. So for example, if I were looping through the local disk (C:) drive, I would like a list of all files in all subfolders beyond c:/.

    - VBS INPUTBOX IN MODAL WAY Hi everyone, I have developed a simple inputbox in vbscript that runs when Win2000 starts. This inputbox acts as an authentication box. I wish that this inputbox is modal so that I cannot interact with system (e.i. I cannot use desktop, start button and so on...) until I input a good code.It is possible? Thanx in advanced.

    - How running multiple commands in a script Hi (New and still trying learn vb scripting) I have created a vb which runs a command that I need to automate, this works fine. But I now need to run the same command with different options after it has completed (Its just the way the command runs, its like a db query), when I do this the command starts to run in parallel and which causes errors, as the command is trying to access the programs services at the same time. I have tried to put the Wscript.sleep, thinking this would wait, but this does not work,any sugesstions?

    - Script Not Totally Working in Scheduled Tasks Hello, I have a script here that runs every 5 minutes in scheduled tasks. The script checks to see if the pc has a certain ip address and if it does it disables the dhcp client and displays a message. The problem is I have the task scheduled to run w/ the administrator's credentials. And unless the administrator is the one signed in to the pc, the dhcp client will disable but the message box does not display on the screen. It will give the message beep however. Then the task continually says "running" because it is waiting for the user to hit "ok", yet the user can not see the message box. What am i missing? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    - Multilingual (UTF-8) support in HTML/URL Encoding/Decoding Hi, I have a multi-lingual website, especially with English and Hebrew chars and using codepage 65001 (UTF-8). I use the Server.HTMLEncode or Server.URLEncode with Hebrew chars when needed. But, when decoding them back - I get garbage. For example, a Hebrew string after Server.URLEncode and a following URLDecode: "P&&&&& "&&&&&&&DAD" 2DAD9D9D9D!" When used with English chars - all is OK. The URLDecode function I'm using is: Function URLDecode(str) str = Replace(str, "+", " ") For i = 1 To Len(str) sT = Mid(str, i, 1) If sT = "%" Then If i+2 <= Len(str) Then sR = sR & _ Chr(CLng("&H" & Mid(str, i+1, 2))) i = i+2 End If Else sR = sR & sT End If Next URLDecode = sR End Function I copied this function from somewhere. It's probably the problem. Isn't it? What should I use to enable URL/HTML Encoding/Decoding that supports UTF-8 as well? Thanks, Gabi Tag: How run a Script with high privileges?? Tag: 198705

    - Grab selected file names I am trying to programmatically determine which file names are selected in a given window. e.g. - my objective is to have a user open an explorer window. He multi-selects several files, right clicks, and then from the context menu sends the filenames to a file. How would I go about pulling the selected list of filenames, while pushing this data into an array or writing it to a file? I'm not quite sure where I should look for this...file system object?

    - VB Script with Windows Task Scheduler Hello. I have a problem with vb scripts that I call using the task scheduler. The problem is that the scripts continue to run and never stop. The scripts are calling an excel, and access applications. I'm using removing the object of each instance using "application.quit", and also removing the object in my vb script "set objExcel=Nothing", and the task scheduler has the scrupt running for 48 hours when it should run no more than 10 minutes. Can some please help with this. Here's a sample of my vbscript: Dim appAccess, strConPathToDB strConPathToDB = "C:\ftoups.mdb" Set appAccess = createObject("Access.Application") appAccess.Visible = True appAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase strConPathToDB appAccess.DoCmd.OpenModule "ModuleImport_ExportNew", "GetDataNew" appaccess.Run "GetDataNew" appAccess.Quit Set appAccess = Nothing Here's the last line of code that the above vb script references: Sub() Application.Quit End Sub Tag: How run a Script with high privileges??

    - Possible VB Error in Access 97 DB? Not sure if this is the right group for this post but here it is: We have a Bunch of users that Connect to a shared Access 97 DB (have to join a access workgroup first). Everything fine until crash on Friday, Now those stations cannot log in. Same user ID can log in to the DB from another PC, I can log in on my station but not on theirs. Seems like only the stations that were in the DB at time of crash can no longer get in. They get â??Compile Error in hidden moduleâ?? but ONLY ON STATIONS that were in access at the time of the crash. Any thoughts? Tag: How run a Script with high privileges?? Tag: 198623

    - How would you approch this project? I am hoping for a code example of how to do this, and hopefully it will help me to see an easy way to code what seems to be a huge monster. I need to create a form that has two pulldown menues (field names Option1 and Option2). Each will house a list of the 50 U.S. States. Users would then be able to choose two states, and get a listing for a courier used for pickup\deliveries (exp: My order is in Ohio, but I need it delivered to Maine. Who do I use?) I am not as familiar with code as I would like, but it seems I would need something like this: If option1 = this, and option2 = this, then the answer (field name Result) = this I know that looks stupid, but I am hoping to show you how I am approching this in my head. Any ideas on how you would approch this project would be great. If you could offer a sample of code, I'm sure I could use it as a template for other projects. My idea is that this is just standard IF this THEN that coding, but I don't know the basics enough to create the code from scratch. Thanks for any time you can give.

    - SLOW SLOW Script... Event Logs > Database....Am I asking it to do too much? Hi, The below script, connects to the AD, enumerates a list of servers within the domain - this bit is quick... The second part then connects to each server in that list and copies its event logs to an SQL Server, so the script is run on box 1, the remote server changes and is Box 2, and the SQL server is box 3. (for arguments sake) all on the same site, on the same Gigabit network... The first box rushed through its logs, now on the 3rd box, I'm lucky if one event record is copied every few seconds... I'm thinking that exporting the logs into a Text File and then run a DTS from the SQL server to import them might be quicker... But this way adds to the idea of integrity... If anyone can see anything blindingly obvious with the structure of this I would appreciate it. btw - strNewDate was made because the strTimeWritten string wasn't formatted correctly for the SQL server (and it was the only way I could think to fudge it) :-) I've got the echo's are there just to give me an idea of what its up to and when... I just don't understand why it starts off quick and then grinds to a halt only 4 servers in a list of about 50....

Or...

Change the Dcom user for wshscript (I think) to an admin account -
suggest local admin.
