Windows Login

[Mute101]

Hi all,

I have a need for one of my systems to programatically log into a secure PC to retrieve files and then to log out again. I have looked through the FAQ's and searched for it but I can't find anything pertaining to this problem. I'm comfortable with having the windows username and password used in the code so I'm sure this must be possible?

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Many thanks
Simon

With Microsoft Script Runtime referenced take a look at the WshNetwork object.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hmm,

I don't seem to have an WshNetwork object available in the Scripting library. Im running Access 2002 SP3 and I cant find anything about Windows Scripting Host in the help files

I presume you didn't mean I had to use WScript outside of the Access environment?

Erk,

As is tradition with me on Tek Tips I have discovered the answer just after posting.

The correct reference is: Windows Script Host Object Model.

Many thanks for your help PHV, much obliged
