rbardo rbardo Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-07-24 Posts: 47 Loc: USA	Hey guys, I was wondering if there is a quick way to get all the workstation names on the domain? I want to pass the name as a variable into the task scheduler udf so that I can automate setting a task on every machine with the same settings.. Thanks. [ 30.

"Current element is " $Element Next Glenn PS - the last paragraph in the tsControl UDF manual states: "More complex tasks can be built.. For example, the tsGetEvent function can be used to read all event information into the arrays. A call to tsSetCredentials to define the password, followed by repeated calles to tsActivateEvent - all controlled by a For Each loop - could copy that event to all of the servers defined in an array, quickly replicating a tast from one test server to dozens of production servers!" Jens' ScheduleTask UDF is ideal to push this kind of task out - sweet and direct. My tsControl library is well suited for applications that need to enumerate, read, modify, and copy tasks in addition to creating them. tsControl also allows multiple triggers per event, so you could schedule a task "at startup", "at logon", and "every 6 hours between 6am and 6pm" [ 30.

In the UDF header there is an explanation of how it works. quote: ;RETURNS An array of strings representing all the computers in the domain ;EXAMPLE for each $computer in COMNetView() ?

If the list of computers must include Windows 9x computers, then either NetView() or NetView2() need to be used. This is mentioned in the COMNetView()header.

rbardo rbardo Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-07-24 Posts: 47 Loc: USA	HEy Glenn, Where and how (example only) do I encorporate code: $Array = list,of,things For Each $Element in $Array ? "Current element is " $ElementNext into an "array" to be used with your tscontrol()UDF. I am using it now and can hit one machine at a time and it works sweetness..
