 - getting date from day/month/year dropdowns I am trying to use three dropdowns to capture a date from the user, one for day, one for month and one for year.

 - Search does not recongnize french characters Hi, Our website has a internal search page that searches all pages in the site and returns a list of pages containing the words used to search on. The search is done entirely in vbscript using regular expressions. However, on the french side of our website...it doesn't recognize any french characters and nothing gets returned. I know it has something to do with the charset and codepage but I'm not exactly sure what it is. I've tried a few different things but nothing worked. One of the meta tags is: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> Is this right? Do I need to add anything in vbscript as well?

 - fetching conversation content from mesanger Hi, After closing my Messenger chat with my friend, a log file is generated with the conversation history in it. I would like that a program which I develop will use the text which was written and send to me, but I want to do it as much as can be done on real time. If the logfile is generated after the conversation was closed, I guess that there is some sort of access to the data itself (before the conversation is closed)? Thanks, Hanan.

 - Problem w/ VBScript running against SQL Server 2000 I have been getting the following error when I run some VBScript code on an ASP page that modifies values in a SQL Server 2000 database: Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 3: Incorrect syntax near ','. /manProds.asp, line 185 POST Data: bayID=105700112&bayName=Another+New+Test+Today&baycat=Laptops&baysubcat=Database+SW&bayPicture=Illustration+Not+Available&bayPrice=35.58&bayBriefDesc=another%0D%0A%09%09%09&bayFullDesc=Product+Descrip . . . This same code worked fine w/ SQL7, but for some reason won't work w/ SQL2000.

I've included the addProduct snippet because it works just fine, but maybe the problem is passed from there--I don't know. From what the error notes, I'm guessing the problem might be w/ the variable bayPrice, which is defined as type 'money.' But everything I've done to try to fix it returns the same error. The post data string suggests it might be a problem w/ bayBriefDesc, but I can't see any problem w/ how I have it set up in the code (and after all, it works fine in fine in addProduct). The FixQuotes function is as follows: FUNCTION fixQuotes( theString ) fixQuotes = REPLACE( theString, "'", "''" ) END FUNCTION I can't figure out what exactly the problem is, and would much appreciate it if someone could review my code and let me know what I might have done wrong or what I could possibly do to fix it.

 - combining isMember and next available drive This is getting a bit complex for me (I think). I'm trying to incorporate a section in my logon script that will determine which department(s) (i.e. global groups; math, social, science, English...) a user is a member of and will then map the S drive to that department's share. The initial drive letter needs to be S. And if users are a member of 2 or 3 departments, they may recieve a T and U drive too. Below is my code for the 'map the next available drive' part. Then I try to add the isMember part and I'm getting a bit confused (or maybe timid is a better word!) Would my best route be to add a 'for each loop' that surronds the 'next available drive' code. And loop would enumerate if the user was a member of each group listed in the 'for each loop' and assign a drive accordingly? CODE ___________________________________________________ 'Map S (departmental) drives 'Will also get a T drive if they're a member of 2 departments 'Will also get a U drive if they're a member of 3 departments objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "S:" objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "T:" objNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive "U:" ' This sections creates two objects: ' objShell and objNetwork and then counts the drives Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network") Set CheckDrive = objNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives() ' This section operates the For ...

 - Constrain TABLE elements dimentions. I'm trying to organise the content on a web page as a table in 3 rows. 1st row and 3rd row = header and footer should always be visible. 2nd row (this is where the entire web-page content will be) should have scrollbars displayed when needed. The BODY of the HTML page should not have any scrollbars. The following code works in InternetExplorer 7 exactly as I wanted. But in Firefox 2, the scrollbars are displayed in the page BODY, instead of the DIV element. How do I constrain the size of that TABLE and the DIV inside it? I want to force Firefox to display the scrollbars in the DIV, and not in the BODY? <table style="height:100%; width:100%; table-layout:fixed;"> <tr style="height:24px;"> <td style="background-color:Gray;"> header </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <div style="overflow:auto; height:100%; width:100%; background-color:Orange;"> content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content content </div> </td> </tr> <tr style="height:24px;"> <td style="background-color:Gray;"> footer </td> </tr> </table> Thank You for any links and examples!

 - Why is this file copy/delete code failing? Below is VBS code to copy a file from one folder to another, and then delete it. I've stripped it out of a larger function just to isolate the problem pieces. The folders are referenced in UNC format because the longer-term goal is to use it across the network. If I run it from scratch, the file copy works fine, but the file delete fails. If I then run the script again, the file copy fails. It seems the file copy will only succeed if the file doesn't already exist in the target folder, so it would sound like a permissions issue. However, I have full Change permissions on both source and destination folders, and if I attempt the same thing from the same command line using DOS, it succeeds. Anyone have a pointer as to what I might be doing wrong? Thanks.

 - Document conversion Hello all. I have an exchange 2003 environment with over 300 user accounts. When we get a new user, I create an HTM signature file, open it in word, save it as RTF and then save as TXT. These files are put in a folder on a network share named the same thing as the user's username. For example, the user's name is john smith. On the network share, would be a folder called jsmith, and within that folder would be 3 files, signature.htm, signature.rtf and signature.txt. During the login, the login script takes these files and Xcopies them into the signatures folder in the user's profile. I then have a VBS script (courtesy of Sue Mosher, microsoft MVP) that sets this signature file as the current signature. My problem is this... I do not want to have to OPEN the HTM file to create the RTF and the TXT. I COULD create the rtf simply by doing an xcopy "path\sig.htm path\sig.rtf" and that works fine. Trouble is when creating the TXT, ALL the html code becomes visible. Is it possible at all to do this via VB script? Thanks in advance. Tag: the oShell.Run not working on remote server. Tag: 208253

 - Setting screensavetimeout via registry and getting it to take effect immediately So I've seen a few posts on this topic, however nothing offering a solid conclusion. I'm writing a script that is set to run on login that resets the screensaver settings to a default setting, most importantly overwriting the timeout to 10 minutes regardless of what it is set to. I have a script that does that fine, the only problem is that once the script runs, the machine needs to be rebooted again for the change to be updated in the display properties. Some people have said that i need to run user32.dll, updateperusersystemparameters in order to fix the problem, however that doesnt' seem to work for me. Surely there has to be some way of getting this done. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here is my current script: Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") oShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\ScreenSaveTimeOut", "600" oShell.run "c:\windows\System32\RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters", 1, True Others have said to do some type of API call, however i can't seem to find any type of example for that.

 - Writing my 1st VBS "Script Component" I am writing my furst VBS "Script Component" -- I have a bunch of VBScript code for implementing websites and web-based applications on IIS/ASP. I was thinking "Script Components" looked like a way to compact some of these resources -- at least maybe cut down on the includes I am doing with my asp files. For example, I have a VBScript class in an asp file. Using the Script Component Wizard, I created a typelib file and a wsc file that describe the properties and methods of my VBS Class. Now, I'm supposed to put the VBS code into the wsc "envelope" created by the Wizard. My [blatantly-newbie] questions are these: (1) Do I include the "Class" and "End Class" statements in the wsc file somewhere? I would think not because if it is in a wsc file it -IS- a class; is it not? (2) Will this code now run any faster? Why or why not? The code is not used inside any loops or anything. (Actually, it uses CAPICOM.dll to encrypt payment transactions to PayPal.) (3) Should the typelib be declared in the Application Object (i.e., in the global.asa file)? Or should I just splice the reference into each ASP file that uses it? (4) Should the object be instantiated in the Application object? When { is this | is this not } a good idea? (5) Should I implement the ASP interface within this Script Component (for the purpose of accessing the IIS Objects)? As a convenience, I define certain constants there which adapt the set of files (i.e., the website) to the configurations of different servers (e.g., data sources, smtp and pop3 addresses, things like that). But it's not that important. I suppose the answer has something to do with server farms, loadsharing, and the scope of ASP Objects. Any remarks? Thanks for your kind assistance. Jim Rodgers ------------ COMMENT: You know, it's kind of cool that such an often-disregarded language (which I love anyway) can have classes, including enumerated constants and all that jazz. The resonance among my VBA, VB6, and VBScript code libraries is just amazing! Thank God for ten solid years of ASP Classic, the MS Office Macro recorder, and IntelliSense!

 - Reg write to ScreenSaveTimeout not taking effect So I've seen a few posts on this topic, however nothing offering a solid conclusion. I'm writing a script that is set to run on login that resets the screensaver settings to a default setting, most importantly overwriting the timeout to 10 minutes regardless of what it is set to. I have a script that does that fine, the only problem is that once the script runs, the machine needs to be rebooted again for the change to be updated in the display properties. Some people have said that i need to run user32.dll, updateperusersystemparameters in order to fix the problem, however that doesnt' seem to work for me. Surely there has to be some way of getting this done. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here is my current script: Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") oShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\ScreenSaveTimeOut", "600" oShell.exec "%windir%\System32\RUNDLL32.EXE user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters", 1, True Tag: the oShell.Run not working on remote server.

 - computer name IF statment ? Hello Everyone, Below is code we use to map over network shared printers however was wondering if there was some VB script code I could use to put a condition on it. The condition being, if this person logs onto computer A then the printers are mapped over but if the same user logs into computer B then the printers are not mapped over. Any help on this would be great. If InGroup( "Active Directory Printer Group" ) Then Call AddPrinter ("domain", "computername", "printer name") objWshNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "UNC path to printer" End If Thank you Alex Anderson Tag: the oShell.Run not working on remote server.

 - Read date from file and append new file Hi, This is probably basic stuff for the majority, however I am attempting to write a little script to do the following: I have a Process ID file (for Websphere), which has ONE entry init, a number, say 1192. Whenever Websphere is restarted this Process ID changes and hence the number in the PID file changes from 1192 to say 3456 (not appended). What I want to do is write a little script, which picks up this entry and write it into a new file, appending to it if and when it changes. Does that make sense?

 - Problem witth New User Creation Script All, Can anyone please help. I have a VBScript which creates a new AD/ Exchange User, creates a new home directory, sets all the permissions and then adds all the relevant groups. The problem I have is that when the user first logs in his Home drive is not mapped. I have checked and double checked the script and nothing appears to be wrong. If I change the Home directory Drive in AD and then apply the changes, then change the Drive back again it works fine, so I don't think it is the Script. Has anyone seen this before? Can anyone shed any light as to what could be causing this? All help is appreciated. Kind Regards Chris Tag: the oShell.Run not working on remote server. Tag: 208223

 - questions on map printers based on groups I am new to scripting and see the boundless opportunities. I admin about 100 pcs for a small private school and looking for a way to create printers based on AD security groups. The script will run within their logon script. Situation: The users DO NOT have admin priviledges on the pcs. We have 5 network printers that are different make and models. They are connected directly to the network and we access with an ip address. Different users share the same pc. Also I want to keep from having to touch each pc if possible. Here are my questions: 1) Will I be required to go to each pc and install the drivers for the printers that pc will use? 2) Will only the printers that are created and mapped with the script show up in the printers folders? 3) Can a user w/o local admin rights run the script to install the printer. 4) Should I share the printers off the server rather than printing directly to them over the network? 5) If printers are accessed as a share can varibles be used so that if the share moves to another server only the varible needs to be changed (thinking about varibles in a batch file)? Here is my logon batch file @echo off net use * /delete /y net use u: \\server\users\%username% cscript %logonserver%\netlogon\logon.vbs This is my logon.vbs script.

Hi,

I wrote a script which creates a batch file on the remote server and
tries to run from there itself.
This script is working in all the servers connected in network except
one. I checked the netlogon services and secondarylogon services both
of them are started. I checked the logon user id permissions its
having domain id rights.

Here is the script.

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

strLine1 = "copy c:\ d:\" & " " & ">" & " " & Unescape("%22") & "d:
\test.txt" & Unescape("%22")
copy1 = "d:\copys.bat"
Set strFile1 = objFSO.CreateTextFile(copy1, True)
strFile1.WriteLine(strLine1)
strFile1.Close

Set oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
nReturn = oShell.Run("cmd /c d:\copys.bat")
wscript.echo nReturn

this script runs fine on server A but in server B it doesnt even
initiates the line "CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")".
I'm not sure wat could be the reason.
any suggessions are gladly welcomed.

Just wondering...
Did the not working server is running an antivirus ?
Maybe the antivirus is blocking some vbs instructions...
