    - HTA / IE7 question... Hi, folks!!! I'm trying to write up an HTA application to do various tasks. I have included a copy of some code to illustrating one of the things I'm trying to do. I am to open a PDF report from this HTA script. I have tried this script on one XP machine with IE6 -- works fine! The other XP machine with IE7 -- nothin! Both machines have Acrobat Reader installed. If I try to open a TXT file using this method I have no problems with IE6 or IE7. Does anyone know what gives?!? ===============test.hta=============== <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <HTA:Application border="thin" borderStyle="normal" caption="yes" maximizeButton="no" minimizeButton="no" showInTaskbar="yes" windowState="normal" innerBorder="yes" navigable="no" scroll="no" scrollFlat="yes" /> <script src="VBSlib.vbs" language="VBScript"></script> <script language="VBScript"> Dim oShell : Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Dim szCmd : szCmd = Chr(34) & App.Path &"\Report.PDF""" MsgBox szCmd oShell.Run szCmd </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> ================================== TIA...

    - Check for missing user group in computer account I need to check each of my computer accounts in active directory for a specific user group. If it exists move on to the next computer account, if it is missing add the user group to the computer account and move on to the next computer account. The script needs to be for global groups and not local computer groups. I hope someone can help. Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205969

    - Inventory Script Below is an excellent inventory script I found on www.windowsitpro.com. It works great but I'd like to add three properties. 1. From the Win32_ComputerSystemProduct, the IdentifyingNumber (the computer's serial number) 2. From the Win32_ComputerSystem class, the UserName and the PrimaryOwnerName ( the username on the Computer Systems tab) Can someone please confirm that the following modifications to the script would be correct? 1. Win32_ComputerSystemProduct doesn't exist in the script. So , just before objfile.close, I need to add: strProperties = _ "IdentifyingNumber" QueryInstances "Win32_ComputerSystemProduct",strProperties,"None" 2.

    - Script to change password for Local Admin account question Ok...as my education continues into the world of scripting (still a infant here), I have some questions. I need to reset the password of all the local domain accounts on our servers. I thought a script + GPO would be a handy method. Since I am pretty new at scripting, I decided to google for some suggestions and came up with a few interesting things and wanted to ask some questions here. First, I found this one from 'The Scripting guy': Set objOU = GetObject("LDAP://OU=Finance, DC=fabrikam, DC=com") objOU.Filter = Array("Computer") For Each objItem in objOU strComputer = objItem.CN Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & "/ Administrator") objUser.SetPassword("i5A2sj*!") Next You change the OU and Domain as you suggested. Which brings a quick question. Suppose your OU has spaces. Something like: Server bin Does that change how you set it up in the script? Do you need to quote it within the quotes? That script seems fairly straightforward. Then I found this one: '------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' Initialization - Declare variables '------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dim fsoIn, fsoOut Dim inFile, outFile Dim arrComputerNames Dim objUser Dim strComputer Dim newPassword Dim ErrorOccurred Const ForReading = 1 Const ForWriting = 2 Const ForAppending = 8 Const inFilename = "servers.txt" Const outFilename = "ChangePwdServers.log" '------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ' Main script '------------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Error Resume Next ErrorOccurred = False ' Insert WARNING here... Msgbox ("WARNING: This script will change the local administrator password for every " & _ "computer listed in SERVERS.TXT. If any services are running with the local " & _ "administrator credentials, those services must be updated, or they won't " & _ "start on the next boot. For this script to work, you must have administrative " & _ "privileges on all of the remote computers you are changing the password for.") ' Get new password newPassword = Inputbox ("Please enter the new password.") ' Open the input file and skip the header line Set fsoIn = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject") Set inFile = fsoIn.OpenTextFile(inFilename, ForReading, True) inFile.Skipline ' Open the log file (append mode) and timestamp the entry Set fsoOut = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject") Set outFile = fsoOut.OpenTextFile(outFilename, ForAppending, True) outFile.writeline (Now & vbTab & "Starting script...") While Not inFile.AtEndOfStream arrComputerNames = Split(inFile.Readline, vbTab, -1, 1) ' arrComputerNames(0) contains the computer name strComputer = arrComputerNames(0) ' Connect to the computer\administrator account Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & "/Administrator, user") If Err.Number <> 0 Then outFile.writeline Now & vbTab & "Error connecting to " & strComputer & " --- " & Err.Description Err.Clear ErrorOccurred = True Else ' Set the password for the account objUser.SetPassword newPassword objUser.SetInfo If Err.Number <> 0 Then outFile.writeline Now & vbTab & "Error setting password for " & strComputer & _ "\Administrator" & " --- " & Err.Description Err.Clear ErrorOccurred = True Else outFile.writeline (Now & vbTab & "Password set for " & strComputer & "\Administrator") End If End If Wend ' Clean up the environment outFile.writeline (Now & vbTab & "Ending script...") inFile.close outFile.close If ErrorOccurred Then msgbox "Script completed with errors. Please check the log file." Else MsgBox "Script completed successfully." End If Ok...not only is it VERY complex for me, but why the huge need for code for something like this? You look at the first one and it seems straightforward and easy. The second, looks like a lot of extra, possibly unnecessary work. I thought i'd start here.

    - Odd 800A0046 Permission Denied error OK, I am no scripting king, but I know when something doesn't make sense. I have one Citrix server out of four that generates an 800A0046 errors on the CreateObject launching the login script. So I created a simple script that has objFSO defined: 'On Error Resume Next Dim objFSO Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") MsgBox "Hello World" Set objFSO = nothing When executed from the suspect citrix server as a testuser with basic domain user rights, I get Permission denied: 'CreateObject'. Now just to make sure it wasn't a local rights issue for filer permissions, I granted the testuser local admin permissions to the server and I get the same thing. I did install SP6 for for vb 6.0 and that didn't help. Got any ideas? Thanks Kevin Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205910

    - cant append to string and use as object i build a collection by executing a wql query. i need to echo a specific property, of an instance in a class. this is fine if its all hardcoded. im passing args to the script so that i can grab any property, class, instance. the problem is that i cant seem to append anything to the "objItem." in my for loop consider this query: Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\somecomputer\root\cimv2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT someProperty FROM someClass WHERE Name = 'someName'") the below would work fine: For Each objItem In colItems wscript.echo objItem.AvgDiskReadQueueLength Next but if AvgDiskReadQueueLength was passed as an argument and stored in strProp, the below fails For Each objItem In colItems wscript.echo objItem. & strProp Next i really need this to work. any ideas?

    - Auto sizing control to display a path In an HTA, I need a control or other object that can grow and shrink based on its contents; I need this to stay on one line; the user cannot edit it, but it needs to be accessible for read/write from VBScript.

    - cant make vbscript/outlook work hi everyone. VERY annoying problem. i have a script that has to run every 5 minutes and check the contents of an exchange inbox. the script cannot run on the exchange server so as far as i know i MUST have outlook installed on the computer that runs the script. (if this isnt true PLEASE tell me how to do this without outlook) so we installed outlook and created a profile for the mailbox in question. the script works fine... but ONLY if we stay logged in. im assuming its because the logged in user sees only the outlook profiles that THEY created. so when no one is logged in, it doesnt work. can someone please explain how i can do this? i either have to do it without outlook, or with outlook in such a way that when no one is logged on the script can still access the profile. and no... i cant leave the server logged on and locked :( Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205891

    - vbscript and domain credentials Using vbscript, is there a way to ask for username and password, and then run the rest of the task based on those credentials? What I'm doing exactly is this: I've created a script to allow me to add domain users to the local admin group on a remote machine or lab of machines. Unfortunately, in order to run it and have it run properly on the remote machine, it must be run by someone who already has their domain account in the machine's local admin group. What I'd like to do is have it ask me for the machine's local admin acct and password, then, using those credentials, add the new domain accounts to the local admin group. Any ideas?

    - vbScript on VISTA Problems? Are there major problems with using vbScripts in my application installation on VISTA systems? I've searched the net and basically found that the the vbscript.dll is included with that operating system, but is not registered. It seemed from the various posts that simply registering the .dll solved the problem. Is there a reason this .dll is included and not registered or was this just an oversight by Microsoft? If an oversight, are there plans to remedy this by registering it in the future or including registration of it in a hotfix or service pack? If there are any other problems outside of this information, which may cause problems with including vbScripts in installations that may be run on VISTA, please let me know.

    - VB Scripting and Databases... hi guys, i need some help with a database issue ... i have a module - Sub A - which opens a database and imports a text file into the database, - while the database is open it calls module -Sub B which also needs the same database and extracts data to a text file. following is the psuedo code sub A create object called objconnection create object called varconnection set objrecordset set varrecordset open objconnection open varconnection objrecordset.open (select * from table) varrecordset.open (select specific field from table) create filesystemobject start a recursive search for txt files store the file paths and parent folder in vardatabase do until end of text files go to the first text file and open for reading read the lines and store in objdatabase (when you meet a "tab" put into next field) update the recordset call sub B with path to file move to next text file close objconnection,varconnection,objrecordset,varrecordset End Sub A Sub B objectconnection to database1 objectrecordset.open select table.field from table1 where value.table1 = value.table2 objectFSO open file for appending select the fileds from the database write to file in the given path close recordset and connection and fso. End Sub B if i run this on 1 file then its fine ... but when i tried it on 30+ files it slowed down and missed some lines in the text files and didn't even create some text files ... i'm lost as to what is going on ... my best guess is that i've created too many connections to database and files and they are not opening and closing in time for the next process therefore misses things out ... anybody have any idea how i can sort this issue out... thanks, Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205854

    - Use script to navigate web page? There is a web site I get information from. The site displays pages of items with individual checkboxes to select each item. There is also a checkbox to select all the item checkboxes. And there is the page numbers with Next and Previous. What I would like to do is log in to the site and navigate to the page I need, then automate (by script??) going through each page and selecting the Select All Checkboxes On This Page box. On the page, I can use Find to get to Next, tab once and hit Enter to go to the next page. And I can use Find to get Select All, Shift+Tab gets the checkbox before the words, and the spacebar selects the checkbox. I can do this for a couple of pages - more than 10 and I start wondering if I missed any! Plus I can't help but feel that a script or other automatino can do this much faster than I can! I do a bit of VBA macros in Word and Excel, and a few VB scripts (with much help!). I'm wondering if a script would help here, or if another way would be better - or if I should drop the idea of automating this all together. Ed Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205817

    - WBemScripting.SWbemSink and Do Loop - Explained Hello all. Consider the following script, used for Monitoring Entry-Level Events, from: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/guide/sas_reg_teyz.mspx?mfr=true strComputer = "." Set objReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & _ strComputer & "\root\default") Set wmiSink = WScript.CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemSink", "SINK_") wmiServices.ExecNotificationQueryAsync wmiSink, _ "SELECT * FROM RegistryValueChangeEvent WHERE Hive= " _ & "'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE' AND KeyPath= " _ & "'SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\ \RegisteredOwner' AND " _ & "ValueName='CSDVersion'" Wscript.Echo "Listening for Registry Change Events ..." & vbCrLf Do While(1) WScript.Sleep 1000 Loop Sub SINK_OnObjectReady(wmiObject, wmiAsyncContext) Wscript.Echo "Received Registry Change Event" & vbCrLf & _ "------------------------------" & vbCrLf & _ wmiObject.GetObjectText_() End Sub I'm trying to understand how the script works. As for the the WMI Sink Event portion, I think I have a handle on it: (1) You instantiate a connector and a Sink: strComputer = "." Set objReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & _ strComputer & "\root\default") Set wmiSink = WScript.CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemSink", "SINK_") (2) You hook the connector to the Sink via an Asynchronous query: wmiServices.ExecNotificationQueryAsync wmiSink, _ "SELECT * FROM RegistryValueChangeEvent WHERE Hive= " _ & "'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE' AND KeyPath= " _ & "'SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\ \RegisteredOwner' AND " _ & "ValueName='CSDVersion'" (3) You set up Event handlers: Sub SINK_OnObjectReady(wmiObject, wmiAsyncContext) Wscript.Echo "Received Registry Change Event" & vbCrLf & _ "------------------------------" & vbCrLf & _ wmiObject.GetObjectText_() End Sub What I can't understand exactly is the Do...Loop: Do While(1) WScript.Sleep 1000 Loop What is going on in the Loop other than sleeping for 1 second? Is the Subroutine SINK_OnObjectReady being called within the loop? If so, how? Any help with clarifying this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. - Dave Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205813

    - Closing application properly I need some help w/ a possible VBScript for closing an application properly. Here is the situation: I need to do a backup of a very odd application. When backup's occur, all users must be out of that application. The only sticky part here is the application is very fussy as to how it has to be closed. If it is closed improperly, it will not allow the backups to occur. What I would like help with: vbs that warns users that they are going to be logged off of application 'Z' in 'x' minutes w/ a 5 minute reminder and then makes winoac.exe (application) active and starts sending the logout key sequence (just several esc keys). Because my knowledge of vbs (or any kind of scripting) is so minimal I'm embarrassed to post what I have thus far (which is actually wscript inside of vbs). Any help that you all can provide would be great! --script-- Option Explicit Dim objShell 'Time out option in seconds Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 'Bring application active objShell.AppActivate "winoac" 'Sending messages objShell.Popup "You will be logged off in 15 seconds", 5 wscript.sleep (1000) objShell.Popup "You will be logged off in 10 seconds", 5 wscript.sleep (1000) objShell.Popup "You will be logged off in 5 seconds", 5 wscript.sleep (1000) objShell.Popup "You Are being logged off!", 5 'Bring Application Active objShell.AppActivate "winoac.exe" 'Send 1st ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 2nd ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 3rd ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 4th ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 5th ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 6th ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) 'Send 7th ESC key & Sleep objShell.SendKeys "{ESC}" wscript.sleep (1000) Set objShell = Nothing WScript.Quit 0 Thanks again, Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205806

    - Reading Binary File Hello all. I am in the process of converting some VB 6 code to a VB Script. One of the things this code does is read in a binary file and then return text to be put into a table. The function from the VB 6 code is this (watch for word wrap): Public Function GetMenuData(ByVal strTableName As String, nOffset As Integer, nLen As Integer) As String On Error Resume Next Dim strTableData As String Dim oFs As Scripting.FileSystemObject Set oFs = CreateObject("Scripting.filesystemobject") If oFs.FileExists(strTableName) Then Dim hFile As Integer hFile = FreeFile Open strTableName For Binary Access Read As #hFile strTableData = String$(nLen, " ") '&H0) Get #hFile, nOffset, strTableData Close #hFile Else g_oErr.AddMessage MODULE_NAME, "GetMenuData", "Missing " & strTableName, App Debug.Print "Table " & strTableName & " is missing." 'This will force the application to stop Debug.Assert (1 = 2) End If Set oFs = Nothing GetMenuData = strTableData End Function Not having worked with binary files, I did some research and found some code from the internet which seemed to do what I wanted. I made a couple of modifications. The new VB Script code is this: Function GetMenuData(strTableName,nOffset, nLen) Dim I, S, oInFile Dim oFs, Binary Set oFs = CreateObject("Scripting.filesystemobject") If oFs.FileExists(strTableName) Then Set oInFile = oFS.OpenTextFile(strTableName, 1) Binary = oInfile.ReadAll For I = nOffset To nlen S = S & Chr(AscB(MidB(Binary, I, 1))) Next msgbox S GetMenuData = S End If End Function The new code doesn't return anything. I know the binary files have data in them. Is there anything wrong with the script? Also, is there an easy way to see what is in the binary file? Thanks, Jennifer Tag: UPnP data readout Tag: 205800

Everything was running fine up to a couple days ago and I have reverted the code to a state that runs fine, but there is no functional difference in the current to the reverted code. ADUC will not pull up properties on a Group for a couple minutes after the error, displaying the "Server is not Operational" message on a blank object window. I have run traces on the workstation and server and nothing is out of the ordinary. I am stumped, in 6 years of ADSI this one is a new one on me.

Hi,

can somebody suggest me a url to some API information to UPnP and VBS ?
I need to build a script which allows me to a) determine a UpNP capable
router on my net and b) readout some schema information

for example:

um:schema-upnp-org:service:WANPPPConnection:1-> GetExternalIPAddress(String)

I Found this Script to set a port mapping via upnp but have no clue how to
simple read already present information:

'===========================================================
'This program forwards a port via UPnP
Set nat = CreateObject( "HNetCfg.NATUPnP")
Dim mappingPorts
Set mappingPorts = nat.StaticPortMappingCollection
MsgBox("Click OK to forward the port")
'Map the SIP port
mappingPorts.Add 5060, "UDP", 5060, "10.0.0.100", TRUE, "SIP"
'Get some info about the currently mapped ports
for each mappingPort in mappingPorts
MsgBox(mappingPort.externalIPaddress)
Next
MsgBox("Click OK when finished")
'Remove the mapped port
mappingPorts.Remove 5060, "UDP"
'===========================================================

thanks.
