cacls to text file

[ccoll23]

I can figure out how to send the access control list of a folder with cacls from the command prompt, but can't seem to figure how to do it with .vbs.
Any ideas?

Thanks

what do you use in command prompt?

 

[ccoll23]

c:\cacls foldername > c:\temp\list.txt <enter>

You may try something like this:
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run "cmd /C cacls foldername > c:\temp\list.txt", 0, True

Hope This Helps, PH.
