    - Create file on external web server and save to local user drive We currently have an internal web reporting tool that we create asp reports that pull data from a sql server. I currently created a report that instead of outputting the report in html format, it generates an Excel file behind the scenes and saves it on the web server. My question is this.....how can I get the file to save locally to the computer of the user running the report instead of saving on the web server? I tried the following code, but no luck --current code that saves on the web server xlWorkbook.SaveAs "\\webserver\storagefolder\Report.xls" --tried the following xlWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\Temp\Report.xls" --or xlWorkbook.SaveAs "\Temp\Report.xls" both seem like the work fine, but when I look for the file, it does not exist. Can anyone help me out with this? Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170292

    - Login script with admin priveleges Wondering if anyone could help me out with the following: On NT, W2K and XP client machines I need a way to run an exe, through the login script, with admin priveleges. I've looked into "runas" and "su", however, they're not the best options as I run into problems with compatability with NT or the fact that one has to insert the password when prompted. I've also looked into "Admin Script Editor" and its packager which lets one create and .exe to be run with alterante credentials. Anyone know if this is possible through VBScript using impersonation? Any enlightment into this matter would be appreciated. Thanks! JCOliveira Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170291

    - creating a partition Hi, I have looked around before posting this but haven't been successful in finding a solution. What I'm trying to do is create a partition within windows 2000/xp using a vbscript. How I would like it to work is that I build the pc from a ghost image. The PC would then autologon and run a vbscript to create a partition from the unallocated disk space. Is this even possible? If it is, and anyone has an example of a script that would be able to do this or is able to point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170290

    - Starting service and dependent service - multiple machines I've got a script that reads a file(containign machine names) and start a service. The script works as expected when trying to start standalone service. i.e. It kicks off the service(& does not wait for completion) in each machine. When a service is dependent on another service, running the script will wait for dependent service to start. Hence, for each machine the script waits for dependent service startup. How can I change the script such that it will not wait for dependent service startup...? Here's the code snippet... --- cmdToexecute = "Winmgmts:\\" & "MyMachine" & "\root\cimv2" Set wmi = GetObject(cmdToexecute) Set wmiService = wmi.get("win32_service.name='" & "MyService" & "'") LatestState = wmiService.state LatestStatus = wmiService.status If LatestState = "Stopped" Then wmiService.startservice End If --- Thanks, Sandiyan Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170280

    - Trying to get a file system script working I've been learning a bit of scripting and picked a task deleting a file. So I read a bit and search the net a bit. I came up with an example: www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/qanda/nov04/hey1102.mspx which shows Const TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES = &H20& Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(TEMPORARY_INTERNET_FILES) Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self strPath = objFolderItem.Path & "\*.*" Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") objFSO.DeleteFile(strPath) I wanted to modify this a bit so I change the strPath line strPath = objFolderItem.Path & "\triggerParams.js" but this fails with an 800A0035 error. I have checked that the file is in the folder, changing the script to just enumerate the filenames in the folder finds it: For each file in objFolder.Items MsgBox "Found: " & file.name next Can anyone see something I've made a mistake doing?

    - Confessions of a "Top-Poster" (ugh!)... It has come to my attention that there are participants here who condemn the practice of "top-posting" (i.e., placing the response ahead of the question), as in: A: No Q: Should I include quotations after my reply? I must confess that I do this all the time, under the rationalization that somebody reading down the thread has already read the question, and shouldn't need to re-read it in order to get to my answer. Further, I will frequently cut off or seriously abbreviate the question, to just the specific issue I hope to address. O.K. so this is offensive. But, I ain't going to quit. Here's an easy remedy. If you don't like my habit of "top-posting" then just filter out my postings, and all my annoying violations of netiquette will just disappear. cheers, jw Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170223

    - Looping Group Creation Script Help... Hi Firstly, I'm a newbie to vb scripting, and so I find that at the moment, I scrape along using bits of code extracted from various sources (mostly books or Microsoft), until I earn the fundamentals. Basically, I'm trying to say please don't shoot me down if my script contains glaring (to the professional eye) coding errors. At the moment, I'm trying to create a script that creates Active Directory global groups, based on information supplied from a text file (the script loops until it reaches the end of the file). The script assignes two parts to the name, which is the 'cn=' value, and the 'sAMAccountName' value. The 'cn=' part works fine, but the script falls at the 'sAMAccountName' value. The script looks like this: ########################################## Const ForReading = 1 Set objDictionary = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile _ ("C:\Shared\Scripts\Groups\Groups.txt", ForReading) Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE") strRoot = objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext") Set adsContainer=GetObject("LDAP://" & strRoot) i = 0 Do Until objTextFile.AtEndOfStream strNextLine = objTextFile.Readline objDictionary.Add i, strNextLine i = i + 1 Loop msgbox(strNextLine) For Each objItem in objDictionary adsGrp = objDictionary.Item(objItem) Set adsGroup = adsContainer.Create("group", "cn=" & adsGrp) adsGroup.Put "sAMAccountName", adsGrp adsGroup.SetInfo Next WScript.Echo "Group creation is complete" WScript.Quit ######################################################## I've tried putting a MsgBox in just before the 'sAMAccountName' line, to see what the value of the 'adsGrp' variable is, but it returns as empty, then fails. I've used a similar script to create Organizational Units, and it works fine, but that one doesn't assign two values.

Is there a way to make this work in one go: logon remotely (maybe map the remote share to local drive letter temporarily) copy the file tothe remote share (maybe mop up) Thanks in advance, Eric Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170171

    - Hidden Variable not holding value What's happening: When Select all button is clicked the hidden variable, buttonname, is supposed to be set to all and the form is submitted to itself. If the buttonname = 'all' then all of the checkboxes are supposed to be displayed as checked. However the buttonname variable is not holding it's value. When I view the final source after submitting the form, the buttonname variable is empty. I didn't know what group to post this in since my code contains both vbscript and javascript.

    - how to check file access Hi all, I'm hoping that one of you can help me with the following issue. I would like to copy some files from one location to another. This is not so difficult to do with vb scripting, but in my case it's possible that the person that is executing the script has no access to some of the files. Now I can solve this with on error resume next, but then I don't have controle over the situation. I would like to check if the user is able to read the file before copying it. That way I don't have to create all the subfolders at the destionation folder if it's empty. I also can open every file that I'm copying and see if this raises an error, but that seems a lillte to much overhead if you ask me. I'm sure that there is an easier way, but I have not found it yet.... Any help is surly appriciated.... Thanks in advance... Greetings Sander Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170165

I am launching an install with setup.exe and need the script to wait until the install (msiexec) has completed before moving on, I have tried several command and none of them seem to work... In a vbs I am trying to uninstall any old version of NAV they have and then install the new version of NAV with the settings we want. All done with no user interaction. I am launching the uninstall with "start /w msiexec /x {GUID HERE} /qn REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS" And then the install with "start /W setup.exe /v""/qb+ ADDLOCAL=SAVMain,SAVUI,SAVHelp,EMailTools,OutlookSnapin,Pop3Smtp,QClient ENABLEAUTOPROTECT=1 RUNLIVEUPDATE=1 NETWORKTYPE=1 SERVERNAME=MANAGED REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS /l*v c:\SAV9Inst.Log"" ",1,True" I am using objshell.run "......" for both the install and uninstall. The wait command does not seem to work, it launches msiexec so when setup.exe exits it thinks it is done. How can I do this? Should I be uinsing the Windows Installer method instead? I cannot find a lot details on the use of this method. TIA. Regards. Tag: Scripting.dictionary Tag: 170157

    - removing the "password never expires" setting from AD accounts Hello, I have a script which goes through local accounts (on member servers and professional workstations) and ensures the password never expires option in NOT set. Now I'm trying to convert this script to work on domain controllers with active directory accounts. Basically the script enumerates all the accounts in Active Directory and then attempts to unset any password never expires options. Where I'm having problems is the conversion between the WINNT and LDAP providers. Line 8 (which is commented out) in the script below is from the working, local accounts, version of the script. Line 9 is my attempt to translate line 8 for use with Active Directory accounts. Lines 13-18 are directly from the other script too. Line 9 is broken; any help anyone can provide with regard to the proper syntax is greatly appreciated. 1. Const ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD = &H10000 2. Dim usrFlagsValue 3. 4. set objContainer = GetObject("LDAP://cn=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=local") objContainer.Filter = Array("User") 5. 6. For Each objLocalUser In objContainer 7. strUser = objLocalUser.sAMAccountName 8. ' Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & "/" & strUser & ",user") 9. Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://cn=" & strUser & ",dc=mydomain,dc=local") 10. 11. usrFlagsValue = objUser.Get("UserFlags") 12. 13. ' Check to see if the bit for password never expire is set; 14. ' The Xor operator toggles any "on"s to "off"s 15.
