does this script take the user logon name as input from the csv file and ask us how much storage limit u want to set

Is that what you need something to do? Read a CSV, get the account corresponding to the username and set the storage limits?

Can I see a sample of your input file?

And which quota limit(s) are you wanting to set? Soft, Hard and Warning?

Chris

Hi Chris,

script should read the txt file that has username of the users and ask me how much u want to set.

I want to set all the 3 quota limits...

Thanks

I think we can simplify that considerably... won't be long.
