Hi,

I have written a vbscript that takes input from user.

Is there any function we can use if script get timout automatically OR user
has not provided a specific input during that time OR user will terminate
script by pressing Crtl-C. Then system should logoff automatically.

regards

Raj

If you run your scripts via CScript versus WScript, CTRL-C works just fine.

There is also a timeout switch for scripting:

//T:nn Time out in seconds: Maximum time a script is permitted to
run

It is functional for either the cscript or wscript host and can either
be set as the default (not generally advised) or for a specific script
execution. Usually this would be in the shortcut parameter list;
otherwise, by whatever agent called the script.
