Thank you... &nbsp;that's a great article, but I have to create a script that actually does this. &nbsp;There's gotta be a function which I can use that calls the information from AD. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Your link was very informative though, I will share the points with you.

I've been asked to create a utility that monitors the launching of applications for errors. &nbsp;For an example... &nbsp;If I were to launch MS Excel, and Excel generates errors or simply doesn't open, I will need to log it to a text file then close all Excel related windows. &nbsp;Keep in mind that this is not Excel specific and should be able to work with any application I chose.<br />
<br />
I've been looking on the web for a possible solution for a few days now and haven't been able to come up with anything. &nbsp;Am I being realistic here?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
