    I see your point...yes I probably should have stuck with saying that I don't know whether or not is possible to accomplish what I am trying to with VBScript.

    I'm working on a script that will be used at my place of employment for base-lining various permissions on our 2003 servers. It was great up until I got to DCOM and from there its gotten sticky. Although I am aware of the security policy settings that provide system wide DCOM access...
