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!

Use VBScript to create folders on a remote server

Asked by dgore1 in Scripting Languages, VB Script

Tags: Microsoft, VBscript, XP, 2000, 2003, IE 6, 7, 8

I have created a very basic script( I used VBscript first, then ported it to hta for gui) that will create a folder on a remote workstation or server(since we are domain admins). This works just fine, but was not satisfied with the final product. Below is the hta that I have. I was looking for some guidance to have the code do this: 1. A different method to create the folder, unless this is the only way. 2. A way to have the value for both the server and folder passed to the create statement. 3. A way to do a whole bunch of machines at one time.
4. and of course trap for errors.

Any suggestions to an hta newbie?

Thanks,
dale
