Yuk. What type of application needs a mapped connection *per user* ? Must be pretty ancient. System DSN no good? -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jon Tydda Sent: Wednesday, 29 March 2006 12:30 AM To: Dba-Tech (E-mail) Subject: [dba-Tech] VBScript Hi all I've got a database running that needs an ODBC connection to be mapped for each user on each computer, and it's getting a little tiresome having to open control panels, and fill in the boxes each time someone new uses a computer - to put it in perspective, there are 130 users and 130 PCs - the combinations are potentially huge... So I was wondering it it would be possible to write a scipt to do it for me that I can include in their login scripts on the server or something... but I don't know the first thing about VB Scripts. Would anyone be willing to talk me through it? Jon The information in this e-mail is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
