    - vbscript ADSI question I have this query for discovering if a user has the &H10000 flag set (Password never expires). I'd like to convert it to querying all users in my domain. <code> Dim Users Dim UserName Dim UserDomain Dim Flags UserDomain = "Domain_To_Manage" UserName = "Target_User_Name" Set user = GetObject("WinNT://" & UserDomain & "/" & UserName & ",user") Flags = User.Get("UserFlags") If (Flags And &H10000) <> 0 Then Response.Write "The specified user accounty is configured so that the password never expires."

    - passing array from VC++ COM to VBScript Hi, Thanks for checking out my post. I am trying to send a SAFEARRAY from a Visual C++ ATL COM component to a VBScript client. I have managed to get this working with a "[out,retval] VARIANT *" on the server side and reading a 1D (one dimesional) array on the VBScript client. I create a SAFEARRAY, filled it with VARIANTS of type BSTR and then send it off to the client via a VARIANT * But I can't seem to get it working with a 2D array?? I get that typical "Type mismatch error" when I try to access a member of the array on the client side, like this :- ###################### begin client code ######################################## Set objArray = CreateObject("ArraySamp.Array") aArray = objArray.Fetch() aArray = objArray.Fetch() Response.write aArray(0)(0) <-----THIS ERRORS #### The server (VC++) code is below.

    - Newbie: Update Excel Chart with new range of values Have a script which creates an Excel chart from a range of values. The script runs daily and adds a new cell value in Column B. That all works fine. What I'm attempting to do is update the Chart range values to include the new cell. What I have so far instead creates a new series with the new cell value - as a result, I'm just getting single points as a different series. After researching this problem for a couple of days, I am still unsure whether I need to somehow update the SeriesCollection values, the Range values of the chart itself, or use the SetData, SetSourceData, or Extend methods. Either way, I have difficulty understanding when to use what, when and where. Hope you can help clear it up. Here's the relevant code. strExcelRowValue increases by 1 cell every time I run it. So I need to update the range values of SeriesCollection(1): B2:B3 on day 3, B2:B4 on day four, B2:B5 on day 5, etc... objXLApp.Sheets(strExcelChartName).Select Set objChartObject = objXLApp.ActiveChart ' Set objSeries = objXLApp.ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1) - Commented out, though I can access if needed objChartObject.SetSourceData objXLApp.Sheets(strExcelSheetName).Range("B2:B" & strExcelRowValue) Thanks in advance Tag: WIA script Tag: 159636

    - Error 80070005 in vbscript Hi I'am writing a script from which the user himself or herself can change his or her password. A major part of this script is here: "Private Function SetPW(Usr, PW) Dim oUser Set oUser = GetObject("WinNT://" & Location & "/" & Usr & ",user") If Err.Number = 0 Then Call oUser.SetPassword(PW) oUser.SetInfo Set oUser = Nothing SetPW = True Else SetPW = False End If End Function 'SetPW" At one domain it works fine, but in 3 other domains I get the error: Genereal protection error - 80070005 in the "Call oUser.SetPassword(PW)"-line. What is generating this error ? Is it any security settings in AD ? Any help or suggestions are very appreciated. Thanks. Hans Peder Nielsen DK Tag: WIA script Tag: 159620

    - SQL constraint rule probelm Hi there, I'm having a hard time automatically editing some users to my SQL DB. I established it is because the surname of the people I am adding contains an " ' ", eg surname = O'Connel What I am sending SQL looks like: sQLUpdateString = "UPDATE Users SET " & updateString & _ " WHERE (UserName='" & userName & "')" conWrite.Execute(sQLUpdateString) My script generates updateString automatically and in the case where it updates the users full name; updateString = FullName='John O'Connel' In this case userName = "JohnO" This normally works fine, (I can update all the other users in my DB this way), however in cases like this where the surname includes the " ' " the full name in read in as being "John O" then an error because the "Connel" part still remains and is invalid SQL. I am told that I should probably use a rule or a constraint to fix this, however SQL is not really my strong suit, so any pointers on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Tag: WIA script Tag: 159603

    - GetObject for IE I'm trying to use the GetObject Method in VScript to copy information into a custom Outlook form: Set objIE = GetObject(,"InternetExplorer.Application") objIE.Visible = True Set objApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objNS = objApp.GetNamespace("MAPI") Set objFolder = objNS.GetDefaultFolder(6) Set objItem = objFolder.Items.Add("IPM.Post.GenericDocument") objItem.Display Set objPage = objItem.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Message") objPage.Controls("txtURL").Value = objIE.LocationURL objPage.Controls("Subject").Value = objIE.LocationName objItem.BodyFormat = 2 objItem.HTMLBody = objIE.Document.Body.innerHTML Set objItem = Nothing Set objIE = Nothing Set objApp = Nothing Set objNS = Nothing Set objFolder = Nothing Set objPage = Nothing I get an "Unspecified" error is at objItem.HTMLBody = objIE.Document.Body.innerHTML but none of the information ends up in the proper fields and, as far as I can tell, the script is failing to properly assign the objIE object. Could someone give me a clue as to what might be wrong?

    - Weird VBscrip Win2k explorer problems Hello All, Well my issue is my inventory script which I have made from other peoples scripts and modified for my own use is having some issues on our desktops. Little about our environment, Windows 2000, SP3 & SP4 with most patches applied. And worm patches etc. mostly our users aren't & can't be local administrators of there machines. Anyway I originally had a VBScript which did the inventory but I was having the following problems so I tried making a KIXTART Script which also made the exact same problems as described below. 1) Logged on as a normal user the PC's Internet Explorer 6 w/sp1 works first time then you close the app and open it again and it says "Detecting proxy settings" and just sits there forever and you have to reboot again for it to work. If you're lucky. 2) After the internet explorer starts playing up I can't get into control panel its like the whole "explorer" craps out. 3) The Computer generally becomes unstable, App's play up Outlook doesn't work media player etc. 4) If I load a patch on the machines which is MS04-011 Latest updates. (May/June) I think it is, and make the user a local administrator everything 's fine. If I load this patch and don't make the local user an administrator it still doesn't work properly ie: Media player doesn't load internet explorer and explorer still has issues. Making all our users local Admin's isn't an option for us. So I'm guessing it has to be something with the script which is causing the hassle. Or something I'm doing somewhere, So I had my kix script checked out and its fine apparently and the VB Script works perfect on a number of machines but then I hit a number of pc's which It doesn't work and causes the problems above. But once you disable to script at logon. The machine is perfect so it 's defiantly something strange when running these scripts but the scripts are fine.. All the scripts basically do is some WMI Queries and other Reg Queries nothing real hi-tech but it seems to make the machine unstable.. If any of you can think of anything that might be contributing to this issue please let me know! Btw: I'm using kixtart 2001 4.21 and I've tried updating to Windows Scripting host 5.1 I think the latest, Still the same problems. Thanks, Quenten Tag: WIA script Tag: 159594

I have a vbscript that I would like to call from another script and at the same time pass some data of various types from the "calling" script - is that possible? What I would like to achieve is exactly what a function does, only that instead of referring to the function's name, I would like to be able to refer to a script file and pass my variables to that I come from an Macintosh/AppleScript background and there one could use: "run script [path to script] with parameters [the parameters you like] " Is that possible in vbscript?

    - hta script broken. I access an hta file that runs a script I need for work. This script ran fine for everyone who accessed it, including me. However, my computer recently crashed and our tech department provided me with a new hard drive complete with a Ghosted image. Since I got the new drive, I have been unable to run the hta file. No one else is experiencing this problem. I am running Win2k, but my office runs a mix of Win2K and NT4. I was also running Win2k prior to my hard drive crash. I installed Microsoft's 5.6 script engine (scripten.exe) obtained from their web site and I believe I have the most current version of mshta.exe. It's my understanding that mshta.exe is the program that is to untilzed to run this script. I have tried to run the script via IE to no avail. This includes me checking and unchecking various script related boxes in the Advanced section of IE's options. Here is the error I receive: **************************************** Msg Box: Internet Explorer Script Error Message: An error has occurred in the script on this page.

    - writing stdout to a log file... Hi All- Got a script that is calling a batch secure ftp process (Putty's psftp) and want to capture the output straight to a log file and not to the screen. Any assistance on how I would do this would be greatly appreciated. The old DOS redirect also doesn't work because the ftp process runs in a different shell... Using WSH 5.6. I know I can not use shell.run to capture stdout stream and have been playing with the shell.exec to see if I could make it work to no avail. The process creates a new text file for writing and executes the psftp process but I don't know how to get its output over to the text file...

The script is as follows: ====================================== Dim WSHShell Set WSHShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\Res cheduleWaitTime", "15", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\NoA utoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers", "1", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\NoA utoUpdate", "0", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\AUO ptions", "4", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\Sch eduledInstallDay", "0", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\Sch eduledInstallTime", "10", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\Use WUServer", "1", "REG_DWORD" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WUServ er", http://sus_server, "REG_SZ" WSHShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WUStat usServer", http://sus_server, "REG_SZ" Set WSHShell = Nothing ====================================== On 80% of my clients, this script executed OK. On the other 20%, the users sees the message "Invalid root in registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\Resc heduleWaitTime" All clients are either w2k SP3 or XP SP1. All users are in the "power users" group on their local machine and are in the same group policy so all have the same rights to the registry. Any ideas anyone?

    - ODBC query in PWS -vs- IIS 5.1 I've developed an ASP application running in Personal Web Server in Win98. All my ODBC queries on that server runs smoothly but when I decided to use IIS 5.1 in WinXP, queries that update my Access Database did not work and give an error "must use an updateable query". What could be the conflicts between using PWS and IIS? What should I do so that my same queries runs in IIS? Tag: WIA script Tag: 159561

    - LDAP connection question... I have a number of wireless machines that reside as stand-alone devices (i.e. not part of the domain). After they are started, the user logs into the machine locally, then gains wireless access. I then want to run a script to map drives and printers based on the group membership of a domain username and password they provide. This is a sort of post-facto login script. I can't figure out how to query the LDAP from the outside of the domain to determine group memberships however. Any suggestions? Portion of the script that works from domain member machine...: ' Now determine the memberships of the presented user... targetO = "LDAP://CN=" + strUser + ", " + mydomain WScript.Echo "Your fully qualified domain name is: " & targetO & VbCrLf Set oUser = GetObject(targetO) Tag: WIA script Tag: 159557

    - problems with activex object taking the top focus when creating a 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. Tag: WIA script Tag: 159515
