    - basic Q: Only one way to make vars live outside of the scope of a function without globals? This is a basic question about the design and intent of functions in programming languages like VBscript. I know how to write VBScript functions and to pass parameter variables in and out of them. As I've become a smarter programmer, I'm inclined to translate the lousy code that I wrote when I didn't know what was doing into more granularized and encapsulated functions and/or classes. I was revisiting some VBScript browser detection code that looked something like this: ' check something ' set a variable based on result of check ' check something else ' set a different variable based on result of check ' check something else ' set a different variable based on result of check The code sets about a dozen different variables of interest. The code was not organized as a function. It's certainly easy enough to make it a sub or function and to call it, but the variables that are set internally in the function don't live outside of the scope of the function. I want someone to confirm that the "correct" way/only way to make many variables survive outside of the function is to return an object (e.g. an array) of values upon the function's completion. The function could write global vars, but that isn't good practice. Am I correct in this, or is there another way that I'm missing? Thank you, Ken Fine Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 174079

    - parsing xml I need some help parsing thorugh an xml file and then take the results and write to a formatted xml file. I made some effort. The xml sample is below. The purpose of xml defines all the property classes we want to pull data for. The code below actually grabs the property class. I don't know how to read the second argument(true/false) What I would like to happen is read all the classes but before continuing to get the values is validate wether or not I should get values based on the true or false argument. The purpose is to have all the properties availiable and decide what we actually want to grab. After validating if we should pull class data, I then need to look at each Property PName and determine if I should grab only certain pieces are everything based on the true/false. As I cycle through each Class and get data, I want to write that info to another xml file.(End of file with dummy values.)

    - LDAP question I am trying to learn how to access AD objects using scripts and do not understand why I am getting the responses that I am seeing. The script is: Dim objDomain Set objDomain = GetObject("LDAP://dc=rcmt,dc=com") WScript.Echo objDomain.Get("pwdHistoryLength") WScript.Echo objDomain.Get("maxPwdAge") Set objDomain = Nothing The first echo works fine, telling me that the Password History is set to 3. However, the second echo (and almost every other attribute that I'm interested in) gives me a type mismatch error. I'm following examples from a scripting book and do not understand what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 174043

    - need script to automate creation of DFS I have a need for a user creation script. Let me explain. I am planning a migration from Novell to Microsoft. We are going to use DFS to help with our User's File access. So I need a script that will search each users group membership, then create a DFS Root for each user with DFS links to directories that the users Group has Permmisions to. For Example jim is a member of printing so the script would create a share Jim, then create a DFS root Jim, and a DFS link under Root Jim to \\server\Printing. I thought to use an exel speadsheet that would have the Groups name and the corresponding Folder to use as the DFS target. I have been able to find a few scripts to try to piece together but I thought that someone out there has either done this or wants to try. Thanks. Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 174040

Also, I have some pivot reports on this workbook which is refreshed from a VBA subroutine called from a Excel button. Our users want this report to be refreshed in batch meaning they want the report to be refreshed overnight and saved on the network share that they can lookup the next morning without refreshing. I am wondering if the workbook is called TestReport.xls and it as a subroutine called RefreshAllReports please advise how to call this Subroutine - RefreshAllReports in the Excel workbook - TestReport.XLS from a VBScript from the operating system.

    - ShellExecute fails to load & print microsoft products on XP!! (word/excel/powerpoint) I am writing some code in Java that launches a VBScript to initiate printing of selected files. Rather than write a custom bit of VB for each known application, I decided to use the ShellExecute function. The problem is, this works on my development machine (Win2K), but I cant get it to work on XP Home, XP Pro (SP1) or XP Home (SP2). STRANGELY, if I try to launch anything other than .doc, .ppt, .xls it seems to work! - Thanks Microsoft! ;-) Any suggestions? I dont think I can use the 'run' alternative, as that doesn't allow me to specify the 'print' parameter. FYI, typing test.doc in DOS or in the 'start->run' section DOES launch word, so I know the associations are ok.

    - More Scripting Questions First off, thanks to everyone for helping a newbie out. I've learned alot as I go along. I've got two more questions for the group: 1. My script calls a batch file and then after it I want it to pull up a msgbox saying it's done. The problem is that as soon as the batch file starts, the msgbox pops up. How can I get the script to pause until the batch file is complete? I've temporarily used the sleep command to estimate how long it takes now, but as time goes on, the batch file will take longer and longer and I would have to keep changing the sleep setting. Here's the code: set objshell=createobject("WScript.Shell") objshell.run "batchfile.bat" wscript.sleep 17000 msgbox("Scan Complete.") 2. My script winds up creating two text files and compares them to see if they are the same or different. Is there any command or method to discern exactly what's different about the files? Like the diff command in UNIX? Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 173988

    - Any LDAP and DNS experts out there? This simple code queries one of our DDNS domains using LDAP and attempts to get the IP address for a printer. It finds the printer with no problem and I can dislpay the printer using the "name" field (code is omitted) but what I also want is the IP address. It is stored in the "dnsRecord" field and is the last 4 sets of numbers. If I could just get those numbers I could parse/convert/ change the heck of them but I can't get anything from the dnsRecord field. all I get are two boxes which I can't type since they lijke some obscure ASCII but they are certainoy not numbers. Maybe I am reading an object from LDAP which needs further work? I dont know. however if I use "adsiedit.msc" I can see the numbers in the dnsRecord field I can't can't query them or display them with my code... heelppppp here's the code: '------- Declare variables -------- Set cnvt = CreateObject("ADs.ArrayConvert") Set objConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") objConnection.Open "Provider=ADsDSOObject;" Set objCommand = CreateObject("ADODB.Command") objCommand.ActiveConnection = objConnection '------- Run LDAP query ------- objCommand.CommandText = _ "<LDAP://DC=usfca.printer,CN=MicrosoftDNS,CN=System,DC=ds,DC=usfca,DC=edu>;(&(DC=" & "hr" & "545" & "*))" & ";dnsRecord;subtree" Set objRecordSet = objCommand.Execute '------- Parse the resultant query and display the results ------- While Not objRecordSet.EOF Wscript.Echo join(objRecordSet.Fields("dnsRecord")) objRecordSet.MoveNext Wend objConnection.Close Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 173960

    - script not run if OS is server? I have a vbs login script that I am working on implementing onto a domain via group policy. However, I do not want this script to run if the user is logging onto a server. Just workstations. Servers are not grouped alone in any OU's and while AD is being reorganized, it won't be completed by the time the script needs to be implemented. Any recommendations on how to implement the login script for workstation only? Thank you for your time. Tag: Get stdout from EXE Tag: 173959

    - Searching excel or txt file for duplicate entries Would anyone have a way to search an excel or text file for duplicate entries such as 2 lines with the same email address or employee ID. I have a file with 13000 users, 1 per line and I need to identify the duplications so I can clean them up. I really only need to search 1 column and the duplicates are next to each other top to bottom. I can pull the file apart if I need to and put only the email addresses into a text file, even that would be faster and less mind numbing than looking at all 13000 manually...

If I execute an exe from within a vbscript, how can I retrieve the
output sent to stdout? Ideally, without using a temp file. This
particular exe produces multiple lines of output.
