    help with removing space after last name

    I've pulled this together from some information online and added my own stuff to match my environment, but I'm getting a result that isn't quite what we need. Hoping someone can help! The output is close, but I can't have a space after the last name: What I'm getting: Smith , Jim Smith , Jane...

    VUM 5.5 and VM microsoft updates

    Nevermind, I ended up running across the answer. As of VUM 5.0 they no longer support patching the O/S on Windows and Linux. Bummer! -Jeepix

    VUM 5.5 and VM microsoft updates

    Does VUM 5.5 support updating Microsoft VM's with Microsoft Updates? I can't seem to find a way to tell it to download updates, let alone create a baseline for them. All I see is things like making sure the Virtual Hardware and VMware Tools are up to date. You can't use VUM to apply MS...

    Hard Drive and CD-ROM Boot Problem

    Did you try booting from the XP CD and going to command line mode (Recovery Mode)?: Use FIXBOOT and FIXMBR (use /? to see the switches). I've recovered hard drives that bombed the boot sector and gave me that error using the above. -Jeepix

    Installing XP on a BIG new hard drive. Big problem!

    It should recognize it. Worst case you can only format up to 1TB and have to do two 1TB partitions (depending on how old the controller is), but if you're not seeing it you might want to stick another (smaller) drive on the controller to see if it is seen. If not, you have a bad controller and...

    Need help

    Doing some testing on another script for renaming .lnk's related to the above script and is in another thread on this forum, I discovered a case-sensitivity issue that appears to affect this script as well. If I have any mappings that are done in either partial or all caps (not all lower-case)...

    Change description in shortcut name

    In doing some pre-run testing of this script we're noticing that there appears to be a case-sensitivity issue when renaming the shortcuts. If the filename of the .lnk has any or all capital letters in the name of the servr (i.e. share on 'Server01') the renaming is ignored becuase the script...

    Printer Local port rename in registry vbs required :-)

    'This script works well in a login script. When ran from a workstation 'it will loop thru all of the printers installed for the current logged on 'user and if they are connected to the old server they will be removed 'and then remaped to the new server. It will also attempt to descover...

    Write current network drive mappings to event log -Help please!

    Well, it'd be a pretty significant event if, for some reason, the person lost all their drive mappings and we had no idea what they were. This gives us a way to at least manually recover their mappings with the same drive letter and everything. Plus, I'm just the contractor, they're the...

    NET USE delay start

    That's weird. Doesn't make sense. Have you tried putting the first in line twice to see if it is really the first line being ignored or something wrong with the first line? If it ignores the first two identical lines, then there's somethign weird going on.

    Write current network drive mappings to event log -Help please!

    This was the end result of what I needed done, in case anyone else needs this: Set objNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network") Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set colDrives = objNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives Dim Logs For i = 0 to colDrives.Count-1 Step 2 Logs = Logs & vbCrLf...
