I am stuck with a task which requires me to copy an image (.jpg) and paste it into a MS word file using Powershell.

Please help me with a sample code.

I know this is an odd question from the start, let me explain.

I am in a very large organization with a centralized helpdesk that supports several other sister organizations.  Users are comming and going at an extremely fast rate.  We have no way to force users to checkout.  Some users simply leave on organization and go to another.  Eventually, some accounts do end up in an OU named "Disabled" and we try to keep only disabled accounts in that OU.  The problem is that sometimes the user shows back up at one of the organizations, calls the HD, and gets his account re-enabled.  When this happens, most of the time the HD leaves the account in the Disabled OU, then when we do a clean-up that account gets deleted...

I am trying to keep this from happening, and the solution I am comming up with so far is to apply a GPO to the Disabled OU that runs a script.  I want the script to do 2 things;

1. Display a warning to the user that their account is in the wrong OU and to contact a local administrator to get it moved

2. 10 seconds after the warning is displayed, force a logoff.

Can someone give me a hand with how that script would look?

My PowerShell 3.0 script works when I run it logged on as an interactive user RDP to the server using the PowerShell command prompt/console.

Next step was to create a Scheduled Task and put this script to work. Everything is great except one function that calls Internet Explorer in order to load a web page (and cause the remote IIS server's .Net application to initialize). I think I can do this using VBS, but apparently something is wrong when using PowerShell! (The old VBS script is being retired, presumably it is working; the new PowerShell script in development for new version of application, new server.)

PowerShell 3.0 is on Windows Server 2008 R2. Symptom is that the IE process just does not run (if the user account defined in the Scheduled Task is a non-administrator) although the PowerShell script ends. The other symptom is IE process hangs (if the user is elevated to local administrator).

Example VBS code that works:

On Error Resume Next
Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.shell")
strURL1 = "http://localhost/appserver/service.asmx?op=Execute"
Set objHTTP = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP") 
objHTTP.Open "GET", strURL1, FALSE
objHTTP.Send
Wscript.Echo(objHTTP.statusText)                    
Wscript.Echo(objHTTP.ResponseText)                  

 Example PowerShell code that is not working (as described above). The "hang" problem appears to be the test for $oIE.busy goes into an infinite loop waiting for the web server to respond.

Function OnBase-LoadPage {
	param([string]$URL,[string]$Logging)
	Add-Content -Path $Logging -Value("Loading Web Page")  
	$oIE=New-Object -COM InternetExplorer.application
	$oIE.Navigate($URL)
	$oIE.Visible=$false
	While ($oIE.busy) {
		Start-Sleep 1
		Add-Content -Path $Logging -Value("Internet Explorer is busy. Waiting for web page to load ... sleeping 1 second, retrying.") -PassThru
		}
	$oIEtempstring = $oIE.document.url
	Add-Content -Path $Logging -Value("$oIEtempstring `n") 
	$oIEtempstring = $oIE.document.title
	Add-Content -Path $Logging -Value("$oIEtempstring `n") 
	$oIE.Stop()
	$oIE.Quit()
	Return ( $Process.ExitCode )	
	}

There is an additional symptom if I attempt to run the PowerShell script unattended when the user is not a in the server's local Administrators' group. That is a message in the Windows System log on the server:

Log Name:      System

Again, the PowerShell script works fine when I run it interactively.

Hi,

If I use a hastable that contains a name (unique) and value, how do I get that name by using a value?

TypeName: System.Collections.Hashtable

Name                           Value
----                           -----
1008                           xcelsius
1007                           WSUS Administration
1006                           wsil-wls
1005                           WebServicesSamples
1004                           WEB-INF

I've tried .ContainsValue and .ContainsKey, but that only returns TRUE/FALSE

I want to be able to get the name by providing the value.

Hello,

I'm having issues with the System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog in that when I try to overwrite a file and I am prompted to replace the file it freezes and crashes powershell.

This seems to only occur in Powershell 2.   Unfortunately for my purpose I am restricted to Powershell 2

What I'm trying to do is create a config file of settings set in a Windows Form I developed.

The save seems to work, and open seems to work, but when I choose save overwriting a file with a different name it crashes powershell.

If I save over the file with the same name then it saves no problem.

Here is a snippet of the Function

Function save-FileName {

param
(
  [Parameter()]$initialdirectory,
  [Parameter()]$filetype = "Powershell (*.ps1) | *.ps1"
)

$saveFileDialog = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.SaveFileDialog
$saveFileDialog.ShowHelp = $True
$saveFileDialog.InitialDirectory = $initialdirectory
$saveFileDialog.filter = $filetype
$saveFileDialog.ShowDialog() | Out-Null
$saveFileDialog.FileName

$saveFileDialog.Dispose()

} # End function save-filename

Here is a reduced version of the Function save-config that calls save-filename

Function save-config {

param
(
    [switch]$saveas
)

IF ($objForm.text -eq "Untitled") {$saveas = $true}
Else {$Filename = $objForm.Text}

IF($saveas){$Filename = save-FileName -initialdirectory “$ScriptPath\Output” -filetype "XML (*.xml) | *.xml" }

IF ($Filename -ne "")
{

if (test-path $Filename) {clear-Content $Filename}

  Add-Content $Filename  ('<?xml version="1.0"?>')
  Add-Content $Filename "<config>"

  # Header

  Add-Content $Filename "<header>"
    Add-Content $Filename ("<opid>" + $OPIDTextbox.text + "</opid>")
    Add-Content $Filename ("<vbserial>" + $VBSerialTextBox.Text + "</vbserial>")
    Add-Content $Filename ("<company>" + $CompanyTextBox.Text + "</company>")
  Add-Content $Filename "</header>"

    # Settings

  Add-Content $Filename "<settings>"
     Add-Content $Filename ("<dns1>" + $dns1TextBox.Text + "</dns1>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<dns2>" + $dns2TextBox.Text + "</dns2>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<ntp1>" + $ntp1TextBox.Text + "</ntp1>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<ntp2>" + $ntp2TextBox.Text + "</ntp2>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<syslog1>" + $syslog1TextBox.Text + "</syslog1>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<syslog2>" + $syslog2TextBox.Text + "</syslog2>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<syslog3>" + $syslog3TextBox.Text + "</syslog3>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<syslog4>" + $syslog4TextBox.Text + "</syslog4>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<communities>" + $communityTextBox.Text + "</communities>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<target1>" + $target1TextBox.Text + "</target1>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<target2>" + $target2TextBox.Text + "</target2>")
     Add-Content $Filename ("<target3>" + $target3TextBox.Text + "</target3>")
  Add-Content $Filename "</settings>"

  Add-Content $Filename "</config>"

  $objForm.Text = $Filename
  $status.text = "Completed Save to $Filename"

} # End IF Statement

Else {$status.Text = "Cancelled Save"}

} # End of Save-Config

Hello All,

Could anyone provide information to upgrade the Windows Powershell version from 1.0 to 2.0

Target OS which has Powershell 1.0 are Windows 2003 and 2008 and upgrade to 2.0. 

I have reference to below Article:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968929

Is it correct article ? Or anyone has additional information. 

Can we uninstall 1.0 and later need to install 2.0? Or, 2.0 can be installed over existing 1.0 without any issue?

what are requirements:.NET Framework 2.0 SP1, or anything else?

Thanks In Advance!

At a minimum I am expected to implement a means of creating temporary tickets and saving them until the system comes back online. Having a temporary ticket system with all of the same fields and information as the normal system would allowany user to input any other user's tickets, speeding up the process. That in itself isn't a huge challenge, it could be accomplished with Microsoft Access in a few hours. However, my ultimate goal at this point is to automate the input process once the system comes back up I'd like the user interaction to be as minimal as possible.

My first ideas concerning this were command line prompts into the ticket system. Unfortunately, due to the nature of our contract, I can't get or give users access to the back end of the ticket system, nor can any other software or drivers onto machines; so my options are vastly limited as far as how I can approach this. Being unable to access the back-end of the ticket system, the only thing that immediately springs to mind is to setup a basic macro to run which copies and pastes information from the script GUI into the ticket system. I'm just having trouble finding any means of doing this. PowerShell seems to have the most promise for developing this at the moment, but was hoping there may be some guidance more experienced users can offer concerning whether or not this is even possible with the tools I have available to me.

I appreciate your time.

Hi,

I have tried for quite some time to make a vbscript which will allow me to search a excel sheet within a spesific column (A) for a spesific keyword. If there is a match in column A for the keyword, I want to be given the value belonging next to it (B). Like a VLOOKUP in Excel.

I have found out how to search for a given value in A, but it won't give me the value from B.

A snippet of my code is as following:

Should anyone feel the urge to give me some assistance, I would be grateful.

Hi Scripting Guy,

Even though I refer to PowerCLI here, I do not believe this is PowerCLI limited question, please read on.

Is there a way to get a particular line from the Notes of a VM?

I get the Notes, but all of them - multiple lines of formatted text, something like this

CreatedBy: UserName

CreatedOn: DateCreatedOn

User: Conatct'sDisplayName

User Email: Conatct'sEmailAddress

Let's say I need just the "User". The Select-String does not seem to work - keeps giving me the whole thing.

The Get-Member on $vm.Notes lists all these methods, but not anything along the "select" lines.

So, once you have the Notes of the VM either in a variable, or better yet in $vm.Notes form, what would be the best way to get just the line that one needs?

Any advice, recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,

The goal I'm trying to accomplish is getting the DN of a user's object without any part of the CN= attribute using powershell.

For example, here's what I get for the DN of a user:

CN=Smith\, John (jsmith),OU=NewYork,OU=Users,DC=Example,DC=Com

I'm having trouble understanding how to filter out the text in the string in the beginning, which is the part that contains:

CN=Smith\, John (jsmith), 

All I want from the string is the OU=NewYork part.  I can handle stripping out the ,OU=Users,DC=Example,DC=Com using the replace function.  If all of my users had the same number of characters for their name, that would be easy.  But alas, that is obviously not the case.

The problem is that I have a csv file with many users, so the "prefix" where the CN= part is always going to be some variable length.  My idea was to somehow search the string for a match of  ), and then remove all text before that match.  But I don't know how to and apparently don't know the proper terminology to use to search on.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to the forums I have expanded on a basic script that goes out and searches a predefined listing of URL's for several keywords, returning those URLs which contain the defined keywords. 

What I cannot figure out how to do (I have mostly been trying to get Invoke-WebRequest to accomplish this) is go out to these same URL's and pull the HTML elements out and put them into a .csv.  So, for example, I am including a couple of elements from the target website.  From it, I want to pull out the "CVE-ID's", "Date Released" and "Proximity" from the page.  This is the source code from an example page:

    <tr class="t">
            <td class="status">CVE-ID's</td>
            <td>
                <p> CVE-2014-2389 CVE-2014-1956 </p>
            </td>
        </tr>
    <tr class="t">
        <td class="status">Date Released</td>
        <td>
            <p>03 Jul 2014</p>
        </td>
        </tr>
    <tr class="t">
            <td class="status">Proximity</td>
            <td>
                <p> From adjacent network </p>
            </td>
        </tr>

I am trying to write and powershell script to the following information:

1. Users and what groups they are in

2. Users and permissions of files and objects

What I would like to end up with is a list with the following

User     Member of    Access to file    UserRole   

Any ideas would be great

I have a batch file that runs at startup that attempts to connect to a server and keeps trying until the wireless network connection is available (it connects about 60 seconds after login) then launches a link to a batch file on that server.

My script works but I want to do a "for /l" and only try 10 times before failing. I can't get it to work.

Does anyone know why?

(by the way: I managed to solve the problem with:

Function Get-XML
{
    param(
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
        [string]$filePath
    )
    $fileContent = New-Object System.Xml.XmlDocument
    $fileContent.XmlResolver = $null
    Try {
        $fileContent.Load($filePath)
    }
    Catch [system.exception] {
        write-host "Could not open file $filePath"
    }
    $fileContent
}

)

Belov i have a script that install iff the registry key doenst exist.
The part i dont understand is this section. Anybody who could explain line by line what happening or point me to a site where i can read about this. 
Thanks
  ReturnCode = oShell.run (CHR(34) & sRunPath & "Prerequisite Components\Microsoft Report Viewer 2010\ReportViewer.exe" & CHR(34) & " /passive /norestart", 0, TRUE)
  If ReturnCode = 3010 Then ReturnCode = 0
    If ReturnCode <> 0 Then
      Set oFSO = Nothing
      Set oShell = Nothing
      WScript.Quit(1)
End IF


' --- Microsoft Report Viewer 2010 x86
RegEntry = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{72DEBE5A-5667-3966-8E8D-2FD5FBCCB7DD}\UninstallString"
If Not regEntryExists(RegEntry) Then
  ReturnCode = oShell.run (CHR(34) & sRunPath & "Prerequisite Components\Microsoft Report Viewer 2010\ReportViewer.exe" & CHR(34) & " /passive /norestart", 0, TRUE)

Hi

I'm a PowerShell newbie trying to filter the output of a ForEach-Object startement:

 $spItems | ForEach-Object { 

 $xml.WriteStartElement('item');

 $xml.WriteAttributeString("ID",$_['ID']);
 $xml.WriteAttributeString("Title",$_['Title']);
 $xml.WriteAttributeString("Start",$_['Start']);
 $xml.WriteAttributeString("End",$_['End']);

I need to add a filter that ensures that only list items where the "End" column is empty, will be written.

How do I do that?

Thanks,

Jakob

hi ,

I am currently automating a web task using windows script.

For the below source script , i need wsh script

<td title="Export Report" class="ui-pg-button ui-corner-all" style="cursor: pointer;" jQuery1404898744838="556">

     <div class="ui-pg-div">

             <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-newwin"/>

                        Text - Export

From the above script,

I need to click the "export"

Please anyone guide me to form a WSH script for clicking the "Export"

So far my code is

Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
Set WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
IE.navigate "url"

IE.Visible = True
Wscript.sleep 10000
IE.Document.getElementbyID("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_ddl_datefilter4").focus()
WScript.sleep 10000
IE.Document.getElementbyID("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_ddl_datefilter").SelectedIndex=4
WScript.Sleep 10000
IE.Document.getElementbyID("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_txt_fromdate").value = "30 Jun 2014"
WScript.Sleep 10000
IE.Document.getElementbyID("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_txt_todate").value = "04 Jul 2014"
WScript.Sleep 10000
IE.Document.getElementbyID("a_genslasummary").click()
WScript.sleep 10000

Thanks in Advance

I’m trying to set up a Win2008R2 (SP1) server as the Pull Server for DSC configuration, and I simply cannot get it to load the DSC-Service feature.

I’ve loaded .Net framework ver 4.5.1 and then WMF ver 4.0.

I did find a set of release notes for the preview of WMF 4.0 that included the command: dism /online /enable-feature:DSC-Service

While this seems to have ‘enabled’ the feature, it still refuses to allow the “Add-WindowsFeature Dsc-Service” command, or the push of the configuration from a client PC that should also add this service and set up the related IIS bits.

I’ve tried as many search combinations in Google as I can think of, but I’m still at a loss as to what I’m missing. I do see that it should work fine for Win2012, but I don’t have that option just at the moment.

What have I missed??

Many thanks in advance,
Mike

I have 900 shared mailboxes that are in Exchange 2007. These mailboxes have no owners and are provided access to the users threw AD groups. I need a script that will produce Each users custom6 attribute (SID is there) along with the shared mailboxes they have rights to (Full. send As etc...)

This is a migration from 2007 to 2010 in different domains.
