    - NTFS File Ownership lost, how to reset ? I writed a vbscript to set ntfs permission recursively. It use AdsSecurity.dll. But when a file have lost owner information, script close with no error. With WMI, I can detect the problem : Function GetOwner(fileinput) Set Obj = GetObject("Winmgmts://.") On Error Resume Next For each SID in Obj.ExecQuery("ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_LogicalFileSecuritySetting='" & fileinput & "'} WHERE AssocClass=Win32_LogicalFileOwner ResultRole=Owner") GetOwner = SID.AccountName Next If VarType(GetOwner)=0 Then GetOwner = "error" End If End Function Function return error and I can avoid to make a "GetSecurityDescriptor". Then, how can I take ownership of the file (local or remote) without use "GetSecurityDescriptor" using WMI or AdsSecurity ? Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141647

    - CDONTS.NewMail Object help Hi All, I'm new to this newsgroup, so please forgive my ignorance, but I have an issue with the NewMail object that I can't seem to resolve. The issue is this: I have the following snippet of code to send out an HTML based e-mail: Dim oEmail Set oEmail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") oEmail.From = sFromemail oEmail.To = sRecipemail oEmail.Subject = sSubject oEmail.Body = sBody oEmail.BodyFormat = 0 oEmail.MailFormat = 0 oEmail.Send Set oEmail = Nothing However, it seems that by including the MailFormat = 0 bit the sender is removing some of the periods out of my links and image references, always at the very end (www.blah.com/blah.htm becomes www.blah.com/blahhtm and www.blah.com/blah.gif becomes www.blah.com/blahgif). It also seems that even with both the BodyFormat and MailFormat lines removed the object still removes periods from some of my links. I've checked over my HTML several times, but it's completely fine, and is shown properly on a test page I've built. I'm really having trouble figuring this out, so I would really appreciate the help. Thanks, Jon Scolamiero. Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141639

    - Setting system variable Hello, I need to create a new environment variable on approx 50 2000/XP machines on my network. The system variable (not user variable) is called LANID and variable value is WRKSTN# . I know of the resource kit utility setx but do not think that works remotely. Instead of writing 50 batch files like this: setx lanid wrkstn# -m (# is taken from the numerical portion of the computer's network name: SCBOE01...SCBOE02....SCBOE03...and so on) Does someone know of an easier method?

    - Mimic the form POST I have a form that submits to an ASP page (ProcessForm.asp) to update the database. However, the ASP page does a check on one of the fields in the form lets say FirstName to see if ther is already a FirstName in the database that matches the one the user submitted. The ProcessForm page writes some javascript onto the page to alert the user and give them the option to go back or continue with the update. At the moment, I use a hidden form in the process page, and populate a variable strSQL which contains the sql update string. If the user clicks OK, this is submitted to a ProcessSQL.asp page. This is a pretty unsecure way of doing things as ProcessSQL could receive any form value and run the sql string that was passed. Ideally, I would want the ProcessForm page to resend the Request.Form() collection back to itself, with a variable in the querystring to let it know not to do the dupicates check. Is there a way of doing a Response.Redirect (processForm.asp) and mimicking the first form subission so it beahaves like it has just received the POST from the form??? Thnx in advance Paul Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141633

    - Charting... hello, I have to develop a site having dynamic line charts that displays data read from serial port. Does anyone know good (and cheap) components that can be used in pure ASP sites? I'm looking for a component with a couple of special features: - capable of drawing dynamic charts based on data read from serial port (like mentioned above) - dynamic x- and y-axis, and scrolling in case of x-axis (= showing e.g. 300 values at a time, older values can be seen be scrolling to left...) - clickable objects, e.g. lines (e.g. user can move min and max limit lines in the chart and the corresponding variables should be changed in ASP site) - etc. All this should work on a pure ASP site (NOT ASP.NET), since I'm working with Windows CE.NET)! UNLESS future versions of Win CE.NET will have support to ASP.NET (but this is another question, which I will post to another newsgroup) THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ADVICE.

    - Check New User Name, Insert Record, ASPMail Form I have a form on an ASP page using VBScript. This is a registration page. On that form I have server behaviors doing the following: Check New User Name Insert record (form "form1") Both of these worked great. Then I wanted to email the form, so I used Ultra Suite 111 (Which is ASPMail a form from same page) When I do this the other behaviors dont work or I suspect never get initiated. This is the page itself: www.harwood-intl.com/lsi/lsiloginregistration2.asp I created a page just to display the code: www.harwood-intl.com/lsi/web1.asp So, I thought I would use the Ultra Suite 112 which is email a form from a previous page. So I took out the email code in registration page, created a email page that only had the email code. (I routed my registration form to a email page) Check User Name and Insert record works again in registration page. Email is sent but only with headers, no input from the form which it should do. This is page for registration that redirects to email page www.harwood-intl.com/lsi/lsiloginregistration.asp To see code for this page: www.harwood-intl.com/lsi/web2.asp To see code of page that sends email: www.harwood-intl.com/lsi/web3.asp I am confused.

But, what is happening is that the instr function is comparing individual digits and finding matches where there shouldn't be. How can I solve this issue? Thanks, Wil A.

    - Open a CGI Page in the Same Window? -- 2nd Try I would like to find a way to open one CGI page from another CGI page without opening a new window. What I am trying to do is: - I have multiple CGI programs that are written in Perl. - The first CGI program is an "options" page. Let's call it "ReportOptions.cgi". That construct a web page that the user can select options from the page, and clicks at the submit button to show a report based on the options that he has selected. - The second CGI program is the "report" page that shows a report. Because the user has a choice of many different reports, I actually have many different CGI programs that generate many different reports. In order to simplify the discussion, let assume we only have two CGI programs that generate two different reports. One is called "Report1.cgi", and the other one is called "Report2.cgi". - In order to calling the second CGI program dynamically, I decide to use VBScript as a traffic cop to re-direct the user to the appropriate report page. Currently, I can do this using the following VBscript statement: 'Here, strReportCgiName is like "Report1.cgi" or "Report2.cgi". strURL = "http://MyWebServe/cgi-bin/" & strReportCgiName & "?" & strParameters Top.open strURL, "wndReport" This works. But this will open a new window to show the report. I am wondering whether I can do this without opening another window. I have tried the following statements. But they don't open the report page. Instead, they simply open the same options page one more time: Top.navigate strURL ... or ... Top.Location.href = strURL I don't see any error in the error log file of the Apache web server. This problem doesn't seem to have anything to do with whether the second page is a CGI or a HTML page. I have tried the following to call a HTML page Top.navigate "test.html" ... or ... Top.Location.href = "test.html" Again, I end up getting the same options page. And I don't see any error in the error log file. Strangely, when I use Top.open to open the HTML page, I get this error message in Apache error log: c:/apache/cgi-bin/test.html is not executable; ensure interpreted scripts have "#!" first line couldn't spawn child process: c:/apache/cgi-bin/test.html Seem like Top.open is trying to "execute" the HTML page. Why? Can someone help me to open the second CGI page in the same window? BTW, I am using Internet Explorer 6.0. Thanks. Jay Chan Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141552

    - Using VBS-Logonscript with Win98? I want to use a VBS-Logonscript for my Win98-Clients to logon to my Windows 2000 Server. In the textfield "Script Path" of my W2k-Server I use logon.vbs. But with logon.vbs the script doesn't start on the Win98-Client. Then I used a extra script logon.bat in the "Script Path" with the content: "Wscript z:\logon.vbs" and everything works fine. Is there a chance to use the logonscript without the extra BAT-File? Thanks Adrian Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141545

    - Get Listing Of Files On FTP Server After Transfer I'm using FSO to create a simple file and then filling it with FTP commands as follows - objTextFile.WriteLine("open ftp.server 12021") objTextFile.WriteLine("username") objTextFile.WriteLine("password") objTextFile.WriteLine("put someTargetFile.txt") objTextFile.WriteLine("quit") And then running that file with - Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") wshShell.Run "ftp -d -s:TheFileICreatedAbove.txt", 0 Set wshShell = Nothing The problem I have is that once the file has been transfered I need to check that it actually arrived, could anyone suggest a method of doing this? I've tried adding - objTextFile.WriteLine("ls > server_listing") In the hope that it would give me a list of files on the remote server that I could check, but this doesn't work. Any ideas? I realise this is probably a question for another group, but I thought it likely that someone here might already have done this? TIA, Colin Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141542

    - Error on loading ASP page with VBScript When I used IE 6.0 to view the ASP page on Window 2000 server PC, I encountered the error message: "Expected end of statement".

Seems the browser treats the single quote that exists in the inline event JavaScript code as a comment symbol in VBScript and it would not tolerate it. To solve this problem: 1. Add a block of JavaScript code block above that VBScript code block. 2. Remove the single quote in the inline event code. 3. Move the inline event code to a JavaScript function.

This doesn't work under VBScript because of course the type of the object is CSession NOT ISession, so I thought[1] if I added a Public Property to my COM object that returned an ISession I'd be home free.

    - Recommendations for a good VBScript editor? Hello; I am using a document management system that makes extensive use of VBScript, and I would like recommendations for VBScript editors that have the following features: - Color-coded text - Debugging (however limited it may be) Wishful thinking features: - Code formatting - Intellisense Obviously, NotePad doesn't have these features, and I have VisualStudio.NET 2003, but it won't allow me to debug VBScript files (making it about as useful as NotePad) and it's a tad too bulky for modifying scripts. I've downloaded AderSoft's VBEdit ($30 http://www.adersoft.com/), which is pretty close to what I'm looking for, but doesn't have the code formatting or Intellisense. Any recommendations?

    - Include file issue I have created a number of classes for my ASP application, each contained in a .cls file. Each of these classes has a SSI directive at the top  at the top. This class file performs the actual database actions. In the situations where a script needs to access data from multiple class files, I get a name redefined error for the SQLHelper class. Obviously, IIS is trying to load the CSQLHelper file multiple times. Is there a better way to approach this? The META directive in the global.asa won't work in this case, right?

    - Regular Expression Hi all, I want to do a find-replace method using VBScripts Regular Expressions. Here is what I want to do: replace a certain word in a string with another word, but the word can NOT be within double quotes! For example: if I would want to replace the word "desktop" with "laptop" I would want to get the following: Before = My desktop is "old": I want a new desktop with more power, like my "father's desktop". After = My laptop is "old": I want a new laptop with more power, like my "father's desktop". Does someone has an idea on what pattern I should use? Kind regards, Frederik Tag: when to write <%@ Language="VBScript" %>? Tag: 141446

Since ASP server scripts use VBScript by default, does it mean it is
redundant to put the following in ASP page? Then when do we need to use
this? In client-side VBScript?

<%@ Language="VBScript" %>

Thanks!

John,

It's more precise to say that YOUR server uses VBScript by default. You can
set the default to JavaScript, if you prefer it. Yes, that line IS
redundant on your ASP page. To write client side script, you need this tag:

<script language="vbscript">

though the language is usually optional.
