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!

Need assistance with VB login script....

Asked by derrickonline in VB Script, Microsoft Windows Operating Systems, Windows Batch Scripting

Tags: , , , ,

I presently use a batch file to call 3 lines...

login-script.bat
++++++++++++++++
net time \\aacomfile /set /y
remove-network-printers.vbs
add-network-printers.vbs
outlook.exe /importprf \\aacomfile\scripts\outlook.prf

It's not working properly.  Here's what I need.  I need for each command to wait until the other command finishes before processing the next.  Maybe I should be using a VB script to make this happen?

FYI, here are the details of the VB scripts being called from login-script.bat:

remove-network-printers.vbs
+++++++++++++++++++++++++
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colInstalledPrinters =  objWMIService.ExecQuery _
    ("Select * from Win32_Printer Where Network = TRUE")

For Each objPrinter in colInstalledPrinters
    objPrinter.Delete_
Next

This script will remove all EXISTING network printers only (local printers will remain).  How can I set this to say remove these printers once, and not every time they login?  Basically we've moved the printers from one server to another.  So I want the script to remove the old printers and update them by adding the new printers at the new location.  But I don't need them to remove the network printers each time as I think that would delay login times.  But I do want each user to always have "x" printers mapped always.  Sorry to confuse things.


add-printers.vbs
++++++++++++++++++++++
Dim net
Set net = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\AACOMFILE\Color_LaserJet_4700", "Color LaserJet 4700"
net.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\AACOMFILE\LaserJet_4250", "LaserJet 4250"


The other file being called (the Outlook.PRF file basically configures their outlook client with the appropriate settings.
