 - Replace() problems Hi, I have a file which is a list of French first-names in four CSV-type columns Agnès-Céline;Agnès Céline;AGNES-CELINE;AGNES CELINE Pat;Pat;PAT;PAT etc The first column is correctly spelt. But 2nd 3rd and 4th columns are mis-spellings. 2=No hyphen. 3=Block capitals. 4=Block capitals and no hyphen. The idea is to use this first-names file to correct another file of names and adresses where first-names may be mis-spelt.. The idea is to scan through the adresses file line by line checking for the prescence of strings identical to data in columns 2, 3 or 4. Any such data should then be replaced by the data from column 1. This works BUT !! ... Incidences of PATTON (as in PATTON STREET) were getting replaced by PatTON. etc. BANNER became BAnneR, (i.e. the ANNE rplaced by Anne.) So I decided to check for whole words, thinking that as my data in the adress file is tab-separated I could look for chr(9)&ANNE&chr(9) and replace that with chr(9)&Anne&chr(9) But that doesn't work and I can't figure out why. Is it Unicode/Ascii ? Is there no way to use Replace() on only whole words ? It's driving me nuts. Almost there but not quite! Here's the script.

 - Finding and moving folders I've been reading a bunch of info and looking at sample scripts but I can't seem to put it all together. I am trying to Compare folder names in folder V:\Submit with the folders in G:\projects. If the V:\Submit\folder1 doesn't match a folder G:\Projects\folder1 then Move V:\Submit\folder1 to V:\Submit\Archive. The goal is to make sure that the V:\Submit folder never has folder names that don't exist in the G:\Projects Folder Thanks in advance for your suggestions Steve Tag: reading registry Tag: 166581

 - Detect Client Side VBScript Enabled Hi, Is there any way of detecting in a script whether a user's IE settings will allow them to run client side VBScript ? I want to be able to either run the VBScript, or display a sensible screen informing the user that the setting should be altered to allow this functionality. Is there any Javascript to get at these settings ? Many Thanks, Larry. Tag: reading registry Tag: 166580

Can you tell me why? I do not change a query while putting a SQL code from MS Access SQL view to ASP code. I only add request("data_od") and request("data_do") which is a parameter taking from a form. I do not know where I make a mistake, because everything is good, but I don`t know why there is a value of VALUE field for 200402 (MS Access) put in VALUE field for 200401 (ASP). Maybe I make a mistake with calling. Can you help me? I would be very grateful for any posts Kind regards Marcin from Poland Tag: reading registry Tag: 166575

 - FileSystemObject misreporting File Size I've written a script that makes a descriptor file (in plain text) based on audio file. In the descriptor file it needs the file size in bytes of the audio file. I've been using the FileSystemObject to get the size of the file. I've been having problems with the entry in the descriptor being off by one byte. This may sound trivial but the file size needs to be exact (its for cell phone downloads). Has anyone else had issues with the FileSystemObject misreporting size. Or is there any system-wide settings I need to be concerned with that may effect this (file system type, compression, etc). Thanks so much in advance. Tag: reading registry Tag: 166573

 - Linking Scripts Hi Since many of my .htm pages use the same scripts I store them in a textfile (.inc) in a separate "_Script" directory. The main reason for this (besides making the code easier to maintain) is that I don't want the users to by able to see what the scripts are doing. I use the following syntax to link the scripts: <Script Language="VBS" SRC="../../_Script/Utils.inc"></Script> The Script tag is also present in the Utils.inc file. On my localhost this works fine, on the webserver this produces a Type mismatch error. Any ideas? PO Tag: reading registry Tag: 166560

 - remembering the link that was clicked On my site the homepage is accessible by all. The other pages need a password. When a visitor clicks a link, they get redirected to the login page instead of the page that they want to see. That part is under control.

 - Easy (?) One - Fill Frame and Print Hi. I've got a button that uses Window.MyFrame.Location = "page2.html" to display a page within a frame. Works no problem. However, as apart of the same button click, I want to print the new frame content using Window.MyFrame.Print. Unfortunately, if before my button is clicked, MyFrame is displaying "page1.html", that is the page that gets printed, THEN "page2.html" is displayed. Is there a way to refresh the frame to get it to display "page2.html" before the print command fires? If not, is there a convenient work-around?

 - Toolbar visibility problem with Excel in WSH running vbscript I am writing a vbscript running under WSH which starts Excel and writes some stuff into some cells. This all works just fine. I am using Excel as an output window for the script because it is easy to do and its easy to format the data. However, there is no need to display the toolbars, formula bar, and status bar in my Excel output window. I am able to turn these off with vbscript code. Here is my problem. When Excel terminates, by the user clicking the red X to close the window, Excel remembers that the toolbars, formula bar, and status bar were not visible. The next time the user launches Excel to do his own thing, all he sees is the menu bar. He must manually make the other bars visible again. I have not been able to come up with a solution to this problem. If vbscript could sit in a loop waiting for the user to close the Excel window that the script created, I could then open another hidden Excel window and reset the visibility of the hidden bars. However, I cannot figure out how to detect when the Excel window is closed. Creating a VBA Excel macro to reset the visibility of the bars is not practical since my script will be distributed to a large number of users and I don't want to mess with that sort of thing. The solution must be contained within the vbscript program. Any suggestions as to how I can restore the visibility of the hidden bars would be appreciated. By the way, is there a way to turn off the menu bar as well? I really don't need that either. Tag: reading registry Tag: 166530

 - Alternative to http-referer Hi I run a website that has authentication "provided" by another site - basically we supply a username, password and destination page to the other site and, once the user is authenticated, they get put on the page on our site they originally requested (this is a client requirement so there's no changing it). This had been working fine until XP SP2. We've been using Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") to check the referer, but now IE (only on XP SP2) returns an empty string. Other browsers (NS, FF) return the referer. I created just to show the referer string to confirm this and indeed the page was blank. Funny thing is if I refresh that page, the original referer shows up! Ayway, I now need some alternative way to find out the referring domain that will accommodate IE XP SP2. Any ideas?

 - Script Encoder Error: "Expected Statement" SCENARIO: I have a very simple application that queries a database. All my web pages are .ASP files. I was able to successfully encode all the files. Each file starts with the <% @LANGUAGE="VBScript"%> statement. WHEN I RUN THE APPLICATION: I get the following error: "Expected Statement" line 2. Line2 happens to be the first statement following the LANGUAGE statement note above. So I tried removing this line of code and re-encoding....SAME problem. WHO HAS A "REAL" ANSWER? I've seen posts in here talking about "VBS" and "VBE" files and statements such as <script language="vbscript" scr="file1.vbs">......but these make no sense to me? I saw a posting from a Microsoft fellow that indicated that all encoded files had to be "renamed" to "vbe" file extensions. Well guess what? That doesn't work either. My host (localhost on a Win2K SP4) doesn't interpret the .VBE file and instead prompts me with a "download" dialog. HELP: What gives? My code is fine. The files are encoded correctly (from what I can see). It just seems that the host can't interpret the encoded files now. ????????????????????? Tag: reading registry Tag: 166496

 - Sample to check share, set up share Hi, I am not familiar with much of WSH, and would like to see a sample script or scripts that: 1) Checks to see if a given network share exists 2) Delete a network share 3) Create a network share 4) Move files to the recycle bin (as opposed to deleting them) I am trying to use WshShell.Exec with the DOS net share command but the correct syntax and error handling eludes me. Are there any other objects I could use that would make this task easier? For example, I have been able to find and use SQLDMO objects to do things like backing up and restoring SQL Server databases. I would appreciate any pointers to useful samples or books. Thanks in advance. Chris Hough Tag: reading registry Tag: 166494

 - ADODB.Recordset: Operation is not allowed when the object is closed Hi there I get the above message when trying to write to a SQL 2000 database. Can anyone perhpas shed some light on this for me? In theory I am tryng to create a generic subroutine which I can simply pass my INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statements to, and then have it executed. The following subroutine gets called for each server that I am running through. The error above is returned on the line "objRecordSet2.Close" My code excerpt is as follows: Sub AccessDB() ' Set the database connection information sServer = "test" sLogin = "logon" sPwd = "pwd" ' Create the ADO Connection and Recordset objects.

 - changing existing local user flag "never expires" Hello I'm searching for a usable script to change the flag "password never expires" on two local users. No domain, no OU, or so - simple local accounts. System is Windows XP Prof SP2 I found two scripts - no one seems to work for me. Script 1: Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://image/trulli") objUserFlags = objUser.Get("UserFlags") objPasswordExpirationFlag = objUserFlags OR ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD objUser.Put "userFlags", objPasswordExpirationFlag objUser.SetInfo Script 2: Const ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD = &H10000 Set objUser = GetObject("WinNT://image/trulli,user") lngFlags = objUser.Get("userFlags") If (lngFlags And ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD) <> 0 Then lngFlags = lngFlags Xor ADS_UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWD objUser.Put "userFlags", lngFlags objUser.SetInfo End If Both scripts runs on doubleclick without error, but the flag seems not been set. System/User/Properties.... is the flag unchecked after the scripts. What can i do? Greetings Chris Tag: reading registry Tag: 166474

 - ASP, looping, and stored procedures.... error '800a0bb9' ... Hi all, thanks in advance. Ok, heres the story. What is happening...... -------------------------------- I've got an ASP page that loops. It loops in order to get data in different, sequential date ranges. I.E. from 9/1/2000 - 10/1/2000 then 10/1/2000 - 11/1/2000 etc etc etc. It calls SPs using the 2 dates and an integer used for companyid reference. Let's just do this for 2 SP's (there are like 6 on the page.) One SP has 3 params, one has only 2. Now, the first iteration of the loop, it works. (because I'm response.writiting out the dates it's using to verify they are ok. The second time through I get the following error when I try to execute the following ASP: Set rstStoredProc = cmdStoredProc.Execute(, Array(GroupChoice, fromdate, todate)) ______________________________________________ ADODB.Command error '800a0bb9' Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another. _______________________________________________ What I need to do......... -------------------- In the loop, I am trying to reuse my command/connection objects instead of reinstantiating them for each iteration of the loop. ***Currently, it must use ODBC not OLEDB so keep that in mind.*** Here's the code for the SP's -------------------- CREATE Procedure proc_getPageHits ( @GroupID int, @FromDate datetime, @ToDate datetime ) As SELECT sum(counter) as hitcount FROM tblTracking WHERE CreateUserID in (select UserID from tblUser where GroupID= @GroupID) and (CreateDate between @FromDate and @ToDate) GO CREATE Procedure proc_getUserCount ( @GroupID int, @ToDate datetime ) As SELECT count(UserID) as usercount FROM tblUser WHERE (GroupID = @GroupID) and (CreateDate < @ToDate) GO Here's the ASP ---------------------------------------------- Set cmdStoredProc = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") cmdStoredProc.ActiveConnection = dbConn do while DateCompare(currentsearchdate,todaysquarterend) = "smaller" cmdStoredProc.CommandText = "Proc_getUserCount" cmdStoredProc.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc Set rstStoredProc = cmdStoredProc.Execute(, Array(GroupChoice, todate)) cmdStoredProc.CommandText = "Proc_getPageHits" cmdStoredProc.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc Set rstStoredProc2 = cmdStoredProc.Execute(, Array(GroupChoice, fromdate, todate)) '(**THIS IS WHERE IT ERRORS**) loop ---------------------------------------------- Why does it error on the SECOND procedure of the SECOND iteration of the loop? It makes it past the first loop ok. Then it makes it past the first SP of the second loop but errors in the second SP....??... The dates are verified correct and in format.... so what the heck is the prob? If I re-create the command object each iteration (i.e. put the Set cmdStoredProc = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") line inside the loop) it works fine. but it's so much slower. The results of the page are coming back in 13seconds. (there's alot more calls and alot more stuff going on, but these procedures should pick it up a bit. Also, if you have any suggestions on the SQL select statements, feel free to enlighten me. I am using the 'IN' method whereas some people have told me of the 'where exists' SQL method. I have not received any examples though. Thanks again in advance. -Beau www.worlddoc.com Tag: reading registry Tag: 166442

 - how to bypass a known-bad SSL certificate I'm writing a VBScript to download some content from a number of internal webservers. I'm downloading both secure (https) and non-secure (http) content. One of these webservers (a test machine) has a number of problems with its SSL certificate, not the least of which is that the certificate has expired. Every time my script tries to download from the webserver with the bad SSL certificate, Windows helpfully gives me a warning dialog that I must click through before the script can continue. Is there any way to avoid this warning for a specific certificate and/or webserver? I'm aware that the certificate has issues, but it won't be replaced and/or renewed any time soon (largely because it's on a test machine), so how can I work around it? I have already tried: * adding the site to Internet Explorer's "Trusted Sites" (didn't help) * changing the system date to a period before the certificate expired when accessing the problem webserver, then changing it back afterward (still saw the warning dialog, because of another problem with the certificate) I am using WSH 5.6 on WinXP SP2, with MSXML 4.0 SP2. Code follows: Sub CheckLink(strURL, strOutput) Dim objHTTP, objStream, tStart, tElapsed Set objHTTP = WScript.CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLhttp.4.0") objHTTP.Open "HEAD", strURL, False objHTTP.Send WScript.Echo "Headers from " & strURL WScript.Echo objHTTP.getAllResponseHeaders WScript.Echo objHTTP.Open "GET", strURL, False objHTTP.Send tStart = timer() Set objStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream") objStream.Type = adTypeBinary objStream.Open objStream.Write objHTTP.ResponseBody objStream.SaveToFile strOutput, adSaveCreateOverWrite Set objHTTP = Nothing Set objStream = Nothing tElapsed = timer() - tStart WScript.Echo "Saved: " & strURL & vbCRLF & "To: " & strOutput & vbCRLF & "Time: " & tElapsed & " seconds..." & vbCRLF End Sub Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
