[dba-Tech] script help

Hi Gustav,
I did some searching for a VBS editor with debug. I think you've described
it well! $50 is a bit steep for something like this. And I was hoping to
find something that I could use on a portable drive but the best I can do is
NoteTab Light.

MS Office used to include a VBS editor, MSE7.exe, is supposedly a small vbs
editor. I thought that might be handy as most PCs I'm working on have Office
on them. Unfortunately neither of my Office 2003 or 2007 installs of MSE
(VMs) will open the vbs file that I previously posted. It appears it isn't
included with Office 2010.

Hi John

Great!
No, I know of no good VBS editor. Those I've found are either not free or
have stupid limits as to wait n * y seconds to save a file if you don't pay,
and I do so little VBS - in fact, for login and group policy scripts only -
that it doesn't make sense to buy a tool. My favourite would be a plugin for
Visual Studio.

Gustav,
THANK YOU!

The other thing that I missed was dimming the function name OSbit64 <shakes
head>

Whenever I have to "quickly whip something up" this always seems to happen
;-)

Do you know of any good (free/cheap) vbs IDE/debuggers?

John

Hi John

You are doubling the backslash:

    ProgramPath = "C:\Program Files\"
    AgentPath= ProgramPath & "\Advanced Monitoring Agent"

Could someone please read through this and see why I'm getting a compile
error?
