    - Reading screen width and height I lifted this bit of code (modified) from the Scripting Center: strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_DesktopMonitor") For Each objItem in colItems ScreenHeight=objItem.ScreenHeight ScreenWidth=objItem.ScreenWidth Next It works fine, but is there a simpler way to do it, without the loop and array? I only have one monitor. Dave Tag: updating registry Tag: 179223

    - Processing paragraphs in a Word document I've written a lot of VBSCRIPT code but very little of it involves Microsoft Office documents. I'm working on a program that will read a bunch of Word documents. I want to loop through all the paragraphs in a document and search for various strings and then summarize them in a spreadsheet. I think I know how to do the spreadsheet part, but I'm at a loss at how to capture the paragraphs of text. I think I need to create a collection of paragraphs and then loop through them. I've spent several days searching through various web sites and all the examples I've found are quite trivial and don't help. I watched some Microsoft webcasts but they also didn't go into much detail. All they seemed to cover was how to put a few lines of text into a new document. What I want to do seems quite basic, but I can't find much documentation on how to get started. Any examples of code that will create this collection and loop through it would be appreciated.

    - Can't display old help file for Microsoft Script Control I want to use the Microsoft Script Control MSSCRIPT.OCX which is automatically registered when Windows XP is installed. I am able to do some things with the control but I'm having problems, so I'd like to read the help file MSSCRIPT.HLP, which is not automatically installed by Windows XP. I've gone to msdn.microsoft.com and downloaded the latest sct10en.exe installation package for the script control, version 1.0.0.8825. In this package, the control is dated 8/25/2004, but the help file is dated 5/24/97. So naturally, WXP doesn't know how to display this old help file. I get the message: "Cannot find or load the file HLP95EN.DLL. This file should be copied to D:\WINDOWS/system32 or a directory in your path." My W98SE system can't display this help file either. WXP partially displays the help file, some or all of the text, but does not display its graphics. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get the tools necessary to display this help file in WXP? Thanks, -Paul Randall Tag: updating registry Tag: 179174

    - IF/THEN based on local group membership? Hello, I know the general question of how to add a domain group to the local administrators group has been asked many times and I have the code to do that part. My dilemma is, since I want to encapsulate the script in a computer startup script in a GPO, it's going to run every time the machine starts; if the group already is a member, it will throw an error. Yes, I could run "on error resume next" but the bosses still classify this as an "error" (though to me it just seems like a piece of information) and want me to check the existence of the domain group in the local admins first, and skip the "add" if it's present. I've looked everywhere and can't find the code to check the membership of a local group much less construct the IF/THEN statement needed to go with it. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be most appreciative. Tag: updating registry Tag: 179129

    - Script Problem I have a script that runs another command line program called upgrade_export.exe. I pass it a path where I want a file the program generates placed. Unfortunately upgrade_export.exe prompts for user input. It says to hit enter to continue. I am using WshShell.SendKeys("~") to send the Enter key. If I run my script from the command line it works perfectly. If I schedule a task and run it while logged into the server console, it works perfectly. If I run it as a scheduled task while not logged in the scheduled task runs, the script runs the .exe, but it stays at the prompt to hit enter to continue. So somehow my WshShell.SendKeys("~") command is not working correctly. I have WScript.Sleep(3000) in before the WshShell.SendKeys("~") in case it is a timing issue, but no matter what sleep time I put in it still fails when not logged in. The server is Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition. This script used to work fine on Windows 2000 Server. I guess something changed in 2003 that is breaking it. Also, I am no programmer. I am lucky that it ever worked. Here's the script. If anyone has any helpful hints on how to do it better please, I am all ears.

    - Printer Config Dump I have a broken Microsoft print cluster I am looking to repair, and to do so I first need to dump all defined clustered printer configuration information on one of my servers, such as printer name, printer IP address, driver name, printer model, printer options (such as if duplex enabled), etc. I'd like as much printer information as possible to be dumped. I know this should be possible. Does anyone have a sample script they can share to get me started. Thanks! Tag: updating registry Tag: 179104

    - Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration - SetDNSServerSearchOrder() Hi! :-) I'm having problems with the SetDNSServerSearchOrder method of the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration object. It works just fine on Windows XP mashines but when I run it on a 2k mashine IP dies and I have to go in and set it manually to static ip and back to get it working again... (A reboot is not enough.) I have among other things tried the example script Dns-replaceserverlist.vbs from http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/topics/networking/05_atnc_dns.mspx. I have tested both setting the arrNewDNSServerSearchOrder variable to Null and running SetDNSServerSearchOrder with no arguments. Both ways are supposed to work and does on XP... I first made a script reading and setting the settings in the registry but thought I'd use wmi to avoid a reboot.... If I don't get it to work I'll go back to the registry version since it works just fine on both 2k & xp. Thanks a million! :-) /Sofia Tag: updating registry Tag: 179102

    - For Next and the Folder object Hi Folks, Trying to create a clean-up script. 2 things getting in my way. (I can access My Docs OK.) 1) I'm trying to go through all folders in My Documents, and delete all folders that don't start with MY For each fld in strMyDocs If Left(fld.Name,2) <> "My" then objFSO.DeleteFolder(strMyDocs) End If Next My For Next doesn't work - I can't seem to cycle through each folder in My Docs.

    - VBScript to go cross-domain group membership for a user I am creating a login script that will perform various tasks depending on user group membership. All users in question are members of a domain that is different from the one where the servers they are loggin to are (users log on to Terminal Servers in a domain that is connected to the user domain by a two-way trust relationship). What is the most efficient way to code a cross-domain group membership query? I have looked at the Microsoft script repository and other code samples, but did not see anything quite like what I need.

    - Scripting Dial-Up connection Properties with WMI Hello: We have a request to create a script to set preferred DNS and WINS servers for a set of laptops running Windows Server 2000. That is, instead of "obtain DNS server automatically," under TCP/IP properties, click the "use the following DNS server addresses" radio button and add an IP address for the preferred and alternate DNS servers, and similarly for the "Advanced / Wins" tab, add two WINS server IP addresses. I have a script using netsh that does this for Local Area Network connections, but it doesn't work for dial-up connections. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

That being said, does anyone have, or know of, a script that can query AD and check users for the existence of published certs? I've tried "modifying" the "Get Published Certificates" script from Scriptomatic, but I'm having trouble porting it over to query all users in a specific OU and log the results to a spreadsheet or CSV.

    - Vartype 8197 problem Hi all. I am trying to automate some AutoCAD task with vbscript. It is very difficult, because AutoCAD uses typed variables, and vbscript does not. The problem I have right now is that an AutoCAD method is returning an array of doubles, and I can't do anything with it in my script : Dim varPoint Dim X varPoint = oAcadText.TextAlignmentPoint MsgBox varType(varPoint) <- returns 8197 = Array of subtype Double But, for example : X = varPoint(0) <- Type Mismatch error X = CDbl(varPoint(0)) <- Type Mismatch error MsgBow VarType(varPoint(0)) <- Type Mismatch error Is there ANY solution to handle this type of data in vbscript ?

Hello,

How can I create a script to go through the registry and replace an entry
with another. Can this be done on remote computer or is it limited to local
computers only.

I would like to replace \\serve01\sw$ with \\serve03\sw$ and this would need
to include any entry with it subdirectories \\serve01\sw$\... with
\\serve03\sw$\...

Thanking you in advance for your assistance!

Is there no way to do this?

I simply want to run through the registry and replace one value with another
where ever it may appear!

Can any show me how this can be done?
