    Task Scheduler - Slipping ...

    I am having a strange issue with task scheduler on a couple windows 2003 std boxes. As some background, I have several jobs that run on the hour to important files into a mySQL database. They have always run correctly, never fail. On 2 of the 4 servers that run these tasks or similar, what I...

    XP wont boot from PCI Add-In RAID Card

    I gave up ... I've built tons of RAID arrays in most every configuration and never had this trouble before. Unfortunately I just dont have the time or money to really investigate the problem fully. My motherboard is over three years old and while this is the first time its done anything like...

    XP wont boot from PCI Add-In RAID Card

    Unfortunately I have done that ... tried using the Promise drivers on the disk they provided me with the card ... then tried using the drivers on the website ... both led to this result :-( Matt Laski Web & Systems Support Pulsafeeder Inc.

    XP wont boot from PCI Add-In RAID Card

    Hopefully someone else has run into this before. I have a Gigabyte GA-7VAXP motherboard that has been working flawlessly for years now. It has an onboard RAID card however the drivers are seriously flawed, so I disabled it and purchased a Promise FastTrak100 TX2 PCI RAID card. Popped it in...

    Excel/VBScript/Scheduled Task - will not run automated

    I currently have some daily reports I wrote that generate and email out Excel reports for orders and shipments. They work fine when run manually, but when I put them to run in a scheduled task they will not run. The script fails at these lines of code: Set objXL =...

    On a daily basis we have to extract large amounts of data (on the order of 500MB) out of our iSeries box and export it out to an external co-located web server running mySQL. Right now we are using Data Transformation Services in MSSQL to export the data from the iSeries into a CSV file which...

    File Security only Partially working

    It turned out to be what wazzup2474 suggested ... the folder itself only had "list" for the users ... once I corrected the folder security everything started working. Thanks! Matt Laski Web & Systems Support Pulsafeeder Inc.

    File Security only Partially working

    I am apparently having a brainfreeze on this one so anyone that might have an idea I would greatly appreciate it. We are using Windows 2003 Server SP1 ... I have a file that has a group that has read-write access to it, as well as one individual user who should also have read-write access. The...

    WSUS Prompting for Reboot

    Thats correct, they dont have the option of postponing the install ... WSUS installs any updates that are pending at noon. I've never used the two options you mentioned so I am not sure if they would help. Probably couldnt hurt to try turning them off to see what happens. Matt Laski Web &...

    WSUS Prompting for Reboot

    It forces them to install daily at noon, but it allows them to click the "Restart Later" button as much as they would like, but still annoys them every 15 minutes. Matt Laski Web & Systems Support Pulsafeeder Inc.

    WSUS Prompting for Reboot

    We currently have WSUS rolled out and I have the functionality you are looking for working. With only a few exceptions all my users are "Restricted Users", only a few people are admins to their PC. Here are my GPO settings for Windows Updates: Allow non-administrators to receive update...

    Excel automation, excel.exe won't quit

    Well ... it turns out that excel quitting is 100% random at this point. I've been playing with it ... the script will make excel.exe quit sometimes, but the majority of the time it won't. Even when I run the same script with all the same command line options ... it will run severals times and...

    Excel automation, excel.exe won't quit

    markdmac ... How would I use Sendkeys to quit Excel? Would it only close the version of Excel that was spawned by this instance of the script? Its possible multiple reports (and therefore multiple instances of Excel) could be running at once. tsuji ... I am running the code with...

    Excel automation, excel.exe won't quit

    I'm using vbscript to put together a script that automates a horribly manual process for generating daily sales reports. It handles everything from downloading the data from our ERP system, dumping it to Excel, formatting it, saving the file to a central server, and emailing it to selected...

    Dumping array contents into excel ... need speed boost

    I'm hoping someone might have an idea to help me speed up this code a little bit. To give you an idea of the size of the data I have to work with ... its approx 4600 rows and approx 30 columns. With my current code it takes approx 10-15 minutes to process the file. I have to dump the data...

    SMS Install & SQL Named Instance

    Anyone know of a workaround for this? I am trying to install SMS 2003 and when the SQL 2000 server was installed they apparently went with a named instance instead of the default instance. I tried making an alias (a work around I found on google for SMS 2.0) but that hasnt worked thus far...
