tsuji, Will the following code (extracted from the link you provided) run the same on all PCs, independent of the local date format? If Err.Number = -2147467259 OR dtmAccountExpiration = #1/1/1970# Then WScript.Echo "This account has no expiration date." Else WScript.Echo "Account...

That's what I'd like to do, but I'm not sure how. I'm trying to avoid doing this: a) verify the format of the PC b) compare it to the input file c) adjust if necessary I don't want to have to query the local PC for the date format. I'd like to be able to pass the date value into AD and...

Do you mean that that property isn't populated in my AD schema? What's the best way to verify?

When working with dates with Active Directory, the date is relative to the format specified on the local PC. Does anyone know of a way to force a particular format when using Active Directory independent of the local date format? The problem I'm having is that the input files this script will...

I'm trying to reference the 'accountExpires' property of an account and am getting the following error: Active Directory: The directory property cannot be found in the cache. I can access the 'AccountExpirationDate' property, but not 'AccountExpires' property. Does anyone know...

I don't understand, but maybe it's just the way our network is set up? Does anyone know what this "Not implemented" error is about?

tsuji, I tried to run your code on one of our servers here, but when it gets to the .Remove line, I get the following error: Z:\Untitled1.vbs(23, 3) Active Directory: Not implemented Or if I turn On Error Resume Next on and display the error: Err 80004001: Not implemented Any ideas what might...

Question: is there a way to close/disconnect open files on server in VBscript? I can see which files are open by parsing through as shown below, but is there a way to close the files using the information retrieved here? Set obj = GetObject("WinNT://domain/server/LanmanServer") for each...

PHV, I get the same result using a mapped drive as a UNC.

PHV, Deselecting the 'automatic' checkbox as described solves the error issue, but the warning that previously appeared is back. Have I missed something? The HTA is on a network share (eg: \\server\share\path\HTAfilename.hta and not a website, etc).

jfdabiri, That did the trick for IE6. Thanks. This will work for the vast majority of my team. However, I have 2 PC's, one with IE7, which doesn't seem to let me register the intranet site properly. When I enter in \\server\share as the site to register, it truncates it to file://server and...

jfdabiri, The HTA works fine regardless of where it's stored. It's just that if it's not saved on the local PC, the above warning pops up before the program will execute. We'd like to get rid of this warning, as it's a nuisance, but the HTA works fine either way.

I'm having the same problem. The only answers I've found so far are: 1) Copy the HTA to the local computer (eg: C: drive) and execute it from there. Apparently, when it's anywhere but local, this message will appear. 2) Export the code which causes the problem to an OCX file and use that...

Mark, I'm getting the SID from the foreign policy; when I query a WinNT object in an LDAP group, it only gives me the SID. (User name, description, adspath, etc - everything is either blank or it shows as the SID). (I don't know why it acts this way, and I don't have the option of changing the...

I can't find the property to display the SID. It doesn't seem to be <b>.SID</b> (this spawns an invalid property error). I tried <b>.ObjectSID</b> as well, which doesn't generate an error, but only displays <b>?</b> when I <b>wscript.echo</b> it.
