Hi Guys,
Im trying to export workstation names from a Kix script into a text file
so for instance. I have a kix scripts that has a
If @wksta = "ws****"
? do this
else
?do this
so i want to have a script that looks through the existing script and finds any words with WS at the beggining of it and exports the whole name of the computer to a text document then moves onto the next. this is so they can be used later to have a script that moves them all into a group in AD. There are about 400 of them, hense wanting to do it scripted.
Im hoping someone out there can give me a pointer in the right direction.
Much appreciated :-)

You can use the Left() function to determine if the pattern matches:
if left(@WKSTA,2) = "ws"
do something
else
do something else
endif

sorry, I perhaps have been sloppy in explaining. I have a script with:
if @wksta = "ws****

sorry computer went funny.
I think perhaps have been sloppy in explaining. I have a script currently with:
if @wksta = "ws****1"
do this
else
do this
endif
if @wksta = "ws****2
do this
else
do this
endif
which serves a purpose for another app. this then repeats about 4 hundred times and the ws number is unique every time. I want a script to read all these WS values and export them on their own to a text document seperated by a comma (preferably).
Hope that is clearer

Not a silver platter, but to get you on the right track....
Open(1,"TheScript.KIX",2)
Open(2,"TheOutPut.CSV",5)
$Line = Readline(1)
While @Error = 0
$Array = Split($Line," ")
$Location = Left(ASCAN($Array,"ws"),3)
If $Location > -1
Writeline(2,$Array[$location] + ",")
EndIf
$Line = Readline(1)
Loop
Close(1)
Close(2)
