    Writing to a text file

    You could try saving the results as a cookie file. However, there are very important security reasons why a browser script should not be allowed to write to the local file system. Think about them for a moment or two and they will become quite obvious.

    Hi You need to read the documentation on HLLAPI. This will allow interaction between OS/390 and VB. Do a search on google for HLLAPI or EHLLAPI or WINHLLAPI. Microsoft also provide a PDF on HLLAPI.

    is visual studio.net really good?

    If you are determined to buy VB.NET get the book Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Deluxe Learning Edition isbn:0735616345 at about $83.99 from Amazon( or any other bookseller) its expensive for a book, but cheap as VB.net(standard edition) is thrown in free.

    is visual studio.net really good?

    automating scripts + writing vb without vb6

    Hello Damian In answer to your questions: 1 Yes VB is capable of this. However, as far as I know, you can not write and compile VB without the IDE. 2 Schedule the jobs using your NT scheduler of choice. VB is not particularly good at running as a service. VBScript is really much better for...

    How to retrieve Password of logged in user!

    I agree with DarenNM, it would be better to use a generic Username/password, but if you want to know the user who is running the app use the api call(this works under NT4, not sure about other versions): Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias _ "GetUserNameA&quot...

    How to retrieve Password of logged in user!
