    - Calling a file for VBscript in a bat file I'm not sure if there is a better way to do this, but the people I need to hand this off to eventually are not that technical and the batch file will make it easy for them. I could probably do four code sections in theh vbscript as well... I get an excel file from the HR system for new users and before we create them we search for duplicate IDs, account names etc. I have 4 individual vb scripts that perform the individual searches, but you have to specify the file name when you run them. I would like to call each in succession from a batch file but pass the file name only once so each line in the batch file will use the same file. This is how I run from command prompt: cscript UML_SearchScript_EID_DoesExist.VBS C:\userfilehere.xls This is the batch file: Rem UserExistsCheck.bat cscript UML_SearchScript_EID_DoesExist.VBS cscript UML_SearchScript_SAM_DoesExist.VBS cscript UML_SearchScript_SID_DoesExist.VBS cscript UML_SearchScript_UPN_DoesExist.VBS The batch file works fine but asks me for the file at each line... I would like to feed it the file and walk away, then come back to 4 text file outputs as these sometimes take a while to process, there are a lot of users to search through. Any ideas? -- Sean M.

    - Problem passing dictionary as argument OK, wrote a DTS package that has multiple ActiveX steps. In an early step I create and populate a dictionary object, create a new global variable on the fly and set its value to the dict, and then fetch the value from the global in later steps and use the values. It all worked fine until ... That is, it worked fine when the package was run directly under my login. When I set it to run as a job under our local sql.admin account, it failed. Huh? If I log into the system as sql.admin and run the package locally, still OK. Only when run as a job and under sql.admin does it fail (I have not tried running it as a job under another login, that isn't really an option). When I do a "set dict = DTSGlobalVariables("mydict").value", it gets *something*, if passes a "is nothing" test, but I get an error as soon as I try to reference so much as the count. Well, right now I'm busy rewriting the code around this glitch, but of course I'd rather understand it and fix it. Any help? It doesn't seem to be the problem in q298725, because a ton of other objects are still created and operate correctly. Thanks. Josh Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175260

    - Can you end a process from vb script? We use a scheduler (Control-M) to runs some VB scripts to automate some tasks in a 3rd-pary application QRM. There is a bug in QRM that when you run it via scripts, it doesn't end the process, so after the script completes, you still see qrm.exe in the process in task manager. We are currently running this on a Windows 2000 server, and it's not a problem, because Control-M reuses the same process every time, so there is always just the one process hanging around. We are moving to a Windows 2003 server, and in testing we've found that Control-M is creating a new process every time. So we end up with 20 qrm.exe process and we have to manually delete them. In evaluating our options, it looks like the easiest thing to do is to write a simple script or app that will kill the processes, and automate that to run every day. So, is there a way in VB script to end a process with a specific name being run by a specific user? Thanks, Dennis Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175248

    - Allow user to run application as a power user Hello, I have an application that I am distributing with SMS. The problem that I am having is that the application, now on the target machine, requires power user or admin privledges to run. I can run the application via sms in the system context, but that will not help, since the app configures the user's environment. So unless someone knows of an easier solution, I need to run a script, in the system context that makes the current logged on user a member of the local power users group, if they are not already a member of that group or the admins group and then run the application under the user's context. Finally, after the application is complete, the script, under the system context again, would then revert the user back to his former permission level, i.e., return user to former group memberships. I don't think that this can be done with one script, because of the context issues. But, since I am using SMS, I can use three different scripts and chain them together. 1. Promote the current logged in user to a member of the local power users group, if needed. 2. Run the application under the user's context. 3. Demote the current logged in user back to his original group memberships. Since we don't normally allow membership in the power users group, I guess it would be ok to specifically remove the user from the power users, but if, in the future, we did allow permanent power users, this approach could cause problems. Another concern is security. I realize that during the period between the first and third scripts that the user could exploit the elevated privledges. Worse yet, they could kill the process before the third script can run, which would leave them in the elevated state. Unfortunately, I am really just learning to script, so the details are currently beyond me. I am not sure if these scripts should be in VB or not. If anyone could offer suggestions or point me in the right direction, I would be grateful. Thanks, Ed Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175247

I also tried referencing the document object that I already opened. If I use 'doc1.FullName', it still throws the same error saying, "The document name or path is not valid".

    - query missing some columns Why would the following not return the same number of columns I see if I run "New Crosstab" inside the Access Database? It should return 5 columns but I only get 3 in my vbscript. Does it have something to do with "TRANSFORM" and a crosstab query? const ConnectString = "Provider= Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\\...\Status.mdb" sql = "select * from [New Crosstab]" Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") rs.CursorLocation = adUseClient rs.open sql, ConnectString, adOpenKeyset, adLockReadOnly rows = rs.GetRows thanks LJB Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175124

    - Table issue Here is my simple html code that list users in a table format: <html><B>User List</B><table border=1 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=1> <TR><TD>Name</TD><TD>Age</TD><TD>Gender</TD></TR><BR> <TR><TD>Joe</TD><TD>21</TD><TD>M</TD></TR><BR> <TR><TD>Mary</TD><TD>33</TD><TD>f</TD></TR><BR></Table</Html> The problem is: There is a big gap (several blank rows) between the line 'User List' and the table when display in html. (It appears that the more <TD> entries I make in the code, the wider the gap.) What code would need to be added to the coding in order to have the table listed just one line below the line "User List"? I appreciate your help. Fan Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175119

    - Logon script & Citrix Metaframe. Hi. Hope this is the right forum for this problem. We have a logon script in our AD enviroment which runs in IE shell. Now when users try to logon to Citrix Metaframe there's only cscript window but nothing happens. The cscript window stays there as long as you want to watch it. When you close it you are able to log on normally. If I change the default script host to wscript.exe the script will never load and the user cannot log on to metaframe. Normally that script is run by wscript (without metaframe). I have looked that when the script is run that wscript.exe and iexplore.exe processes start ok. Now if I test logon with administrator rights the script loads and runs fine with both cscript and wscript. Metaframe "Power Users" experience the same problem. Hmm.. I tested this script and it works fine: wscript.echo "I suck 'cause I can't get it work :(" I don't know what would be the best solution, but could I run a different script in terminal sessions? That would solve my problem, maybe... /Arsi Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175086

    - Using a text file as database Hi, Is it possible to use a text file as a database and parse it using VBScript? For example, let us assume that I have a text file with following entries: Identification No Name Date xpern21 Bob 05/21/05 I want query this file using the Identificaiton number, which will be unique, and get the remaining details like name & date. Can I do this using VBScript? If so, can you point me to some example code to learn this concept? Thanks for your time, Ravi Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175085

    - Parsing text into web page table entries? I have a bunch of files (Playlist files for media player) and I am trying to create an automatically generated web page that includes the last 20 or 30 of these files. The files are created every week and are named XX-XX-XX.ASX where the X's represent the date i.e. 05-22-05.asx The files are a specific format and will always contain tags like the following: <TITLE>My media file title</TITLE> <AUTHOR>Media file author</AUTHOR> <Ref href = "mms://media.mydomainname.com/2005/05-01-05.wma" /> I would like to parse these files for the info in the tags, Title, Author, and Date and then add them to a table on a web page, but I have had no luck creating the parsing on my own. Can anyone give me a good start in the right direction using vbscript to get this going. I especially have trouble pulling the date out since it is at the end of a tag.. Though I suppose the filename could be used if that could be converted into a properly formatted date i.e. May 1, 2005 Help? Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175082

    - WinWrap Basic? Visual Basic for Applications? I am playing with Dragon NaturallySpeaking (Naturally Speaking) Advanced Scripting capabilities. According to the documentation, it is "Visual Basic for Applications compatible". It also mentions WinWrap Basic, once. I own Microsoft's Visual C++ NET 2003. Can I buy and use Visual Basic for a Visual Basic for Applications programming environment? Is Visual Basic for Applications a language by itself, or is the syntax, keywords, and stuff dependent on the application? Thank you. I sense that the timing of command input is very good, but the documentation has lots of errors. For what its worth, here is what the syntax for some (SendInput in C++) functions look like. Seems to be a mixture. SendKeys Keys$[, Wait] SendSystemKeys "keystroke text" [, speed] SendDragonKeys "type this" Tag: Re: Sign-In with Script Command Tag: 175062
