    - Getting version of Microsoft.XMLHTTP object prior to ADOB.Stream? I'm _totally_ new at creating ADOB.Stream objects, etc. - and I've been able to succesfully implement the code that Tom Lavedas supplied to me. However, my question is this: I also want to utilize this code to download the McAfee program, and I need it to check the remote exe contained in the url for it's current version. If the version on the server is newer than what I have in my folder, then I want it to go ahead and download it. I've had no luck in finding any information on how to pull the XMLHTTP object version. Anyone have any ideas and know what the correct properties/methods are to get such information? Rob Tag: problems with activex object taking the top focus when creating a Tag: 159502

    - Commas in the CN name I am using scripts to create user logins in AD with Windows 2003 domain controllers. When I try to create a user with the CN name being something like "Blow, Joe" my script chokes. I can create a login with a CN name of "Blow Joe", with a space, but not a comma. I get the rror message "Active Directory: An invalid Active Directory pathname was passed." Same problem when I try to read a specific CN that has a comma in it with a script. The script chokes. However, if you create a login using the utility Active Directory Users and Computers, by default the CN name is created in the form of "Blow, Joe." Also you can go in on the gui and manually change the CN name to contain a comma. Any suggestions on how to create a CN name with scripting?

    - Killing a Shelled Oracle SQLPlus Process I have a VBS script running as a scheduled task once a minute on a Win2K server which connects to a database (populated from an intranet site) and checks for new jobs to run in Oracle SQLPlus. My job table looks like this: JOB PROCESSED SUBMITTED_BY ============================================= interface1.sql Y user1 interface1.sql Y user2 interface2.sql Y user2 interface1.sql N user1 The idea is that if an outstanding job is found (PROCESSED = N) then the script processes it by running the following function and passing the name of the JOB (SQL file) to it. Function processRequest(jobName) Dim wshShell On Error Resume Next Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") wshShell.Run "SQLPLUS user/password@database @" & _ jobName, 0, True Set wshShell = Nothing If err.number = 0 Then processRequest = True Else processRequest = False End If On Error Goto 0 End Function After the job is processed (usually 2 or 3 seconds) the job is flagged as process and the user is sent an email. This all works fine. HOWEVER! The problem I have with it, is that if I pass it a Job that doesn't exist or is full of crap (for testing) I get two process that sit there doing nothing (WScript and SQLPLUS.EXE) and the whole script stops. The WScript process gets killed after 1 minute by the task scheduler automatically, but the SQLPLUS.EXE process never gets killed unless I go in and kill it manually. I am therefore trying to find a way to avoid this so that the script can manage itself. Does anyone have any suggestions on how this could be done? Or is there anyway I can monitor SQLPlus to see if its stopped, or force it to close? TIA, Colin Tag: problems with activex object taking the top focus when creating a Tag: 159488

    - How to automate data input to Word template with VBScript Can someone tell me how to use VBScript to populate a word document with data automatically? Im putting a legal template together with a bunch of contract stipulations and I'd like to be able to popup a window and have each item be able to be checked by the user, then all items with a check mark are sent to a new legal template and populated in the appropriate sections of the template using Word bookmarks. I've sucessfully used the Doc.Bookmark object to get data from the user via Input boxes and populate a Word template, but popping up windows with each contract item and asking the user yes/no if they want to include it would be messy.

    - Automatically Populate Username and Password in Ie Windows Authentication Input Box We are trying to automate the process of getting shipping rate quotes from various shipping company web sites. Some of the web sites present an input dialog box asking for a username and password when you click login. (For example: when I navigate to http://www.myyellow.com there is a logon link. When I click on the link a separate authentication input box entitled "Connect to www.myyellow.com" pops up and has a username field and a password field. http://www.roadway.com does the same thing) Is there anyway to programmatically populate the windows authentication input box username and password field automatically without using SendKeys?

    - Parsing MSSecure.xml for a child node when the parent node is known, using vbscript Ok, I'm parsing a shavlik output xml file (using HFNETCHK), which lists a series of hotfixes that are not installed on a PC. I can successfully read nodes/values from this XML file with no problems. I am attempting to cross-reference two values from the output xml file - as my script parses the output xml, it finds out a) missing bulletin IDs b) hotfix exe for each bulletin ID In my function that is called when each missing patch is parsed, I wish to pull information from mssecure.xml using those two parameters as identifying selectors(?). The end result is that I want to find out the patchlocationID from mssecure.xml for that appropriate bulletin ID where it matches the patchname (hotfix exe). So, for example, my input parameters might be (BulletinID) MS02-055, and (PatchName) Q323255_WXP_SP2_x86_ENU.exe. I can get my script to select the appropriate bulletin ID node from the mssecure.xml file, but I can't seem to get it to bring me the values of certain child nodes and their attributes. There are about 2 or 3 total patch nodes that appear under Bulletin, but this is the one that I want it to find and return "PatchLocationID" for.

    - Evaluate as Variable versus String? Hey gang, I am probably missing something basic. I have a bunch of arrays in one of my ASP scripts, and I need to construct the reference to the variable through some string contatenations. Example: - one of my variables is 'strQ1a(13)' and earlier in the script I assign a value. - I construct the name of this variable through code like response.write="str" & myQuestionNumber & "(" & myrs.fields("value") & ")" - VBScript just evaluates this as a string and rather than displaying the value of variable strQ1a(13), it justs displays "strQ1a(13)" How can I get it to look at this as a variable and get the name?

    - Reading from the registry Hi, Is there a way to export a registry key other than using oShell.exec("cmd /C regedit.exe /e "& (sPath) & .....?

    - CGI environment variables in VBScript? Is it possible to access the CGI variables from within VBScript? I know the objShell.environment() method, but this gives access to only a few selected variables. What I need is something like the "set" command, which *does* show variables like QUERY_STRING. I've tried calling the "set" command from within VBScript and parsing the output, but this is very clumsy :-) Is there a .dll somewhere that I can call from within VBScript that would give me better access to CGI? NB: I'm just playing around. I know that IIS+ASP has much better tools for this, but I'm playing with a very simple webserver (Analog-X) that does not have all these extra features.

Hi,

I`m trying to develop a menu system for one of my apps, the problem lies in the fact that there is a graphing activex control on every page.

Normally I would just create a menu using divs. But the activex object always takes the top focus and the index-z properties have no effect. After a bit of looking around I found that it's not possible to change the properties of an object in that way.

So I thought I could use window.createpopup to create multi windows for the menus. So far though I can only seem to keep one window on the screen at once.
Again after some reading it seems that once you move away from the popup the popup disappears automatically. I`m trying to write a heriachal menu system where the previous options stays as you navigate across, (the same as the microsoft menu system).

Anybody else having / had this problem or know of a way around this? I`m using vbscript for the client side of things.

thanks.

Scot.
