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!

Vbscript output to .csv file

Asked by Brian08 in VB Script, Windows 2003 Server, Scripting Languages

Tags: ,

I found this script that will read the local administrators groups on a member and report the nested groups members that it contants. I need some help getting this to output to .csv file. I am new to using vbscript and I am stuck on this. I have used dumpsec for the task but it would not report the nested group members.

I also need to be able to read all the local groups on the machine and do the same output but I think I might could figure that out. The important thing is getting the output done.

Thanks in advance
