The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Start a program in Terminal Services Win2K3

Asked by dcohn in Remote Desktop/Terminal Services, Windows 2003 Server

I reference question ID:22457941.

I have the same issue when I attempt to use JPSOFT TakeCommand instead of a Batch file.

I want something that is not so ugly to present to the user a choice of starting two spplications.
I have written a rather crude cmd file (see snippet of it below)

This works and does what I desire.

This server is NOT in a domain.  There are only 8 or 10 users that require this so editing their environment works.  It is a server that is remote hostyed running their accounting application.

I would love a sample of a VBscript that would give me a prompt with a choice for the user preferably to click one of two icons for application A or B and possibly a cancel as well.

Thanks very much
