what is the best way to get the pst file sizes - vbscript

Could someone please suggest the best way to grab the pst file sizes and write them out to the same text file next to the pst path.

End Select
End Function

If your GetPSTPath() function is returning the proper paths to the files you seek, and you just want to write the file sizes along with the file paths, you can do this:
For Each objFolder2 In objNS.Folders
' Get the file path...
strPath = GetPSTpath(objFolder2.StoreID)
' Get the file's size...
intSize = objFSO.GetFile(strPath).Size
' Write both pieces of information to the output file...
objTextFile.WriteLine strPath & " = " & intSize
Next

Thanks for your help and suggestions. I came up with the following which grabs the users default Outlook profile launches Outlook, verifies the attached PSTs then outs to file, including username, PST location and size. The .MDC files are excluded which relate to Enterprise Vault local cache.

Prepend text to Text file using VBScript

I have this script to allow me to insert text into a text file but I need it to be at the start of the text file. This script currently adds this to the end of the .txt file.
And I am new to trying these things out myself
Option Explicit
Dim objFSO, objFolder, objShell, objTextFile, objFile

If objFSO.FolderExists(strDirectory) Then
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strDirectory)
Else
Set objFolder = objFSO.CreateFolder(strDirectory)
WScript.Echo "Just created " & strDirectory
End If
If objFSO.FileExists(strDirectory & strFile) Then
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strDirectory)
Else
Set objFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(strDirectory & strFile)
Wscript.Echo "Just created " & strDirectory & strFile
End If
set objFile = nothing
set objFolder = nothing
Const ForAppending = 8
Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile _
(strDirectory & strFile, ForAppending, True)
objTextFile.WriteLine(strText)
objTextFile.Close
WScript.Quit
You can read the file's content into a string, add your string in front of that and write everything back to the same file.
Dim sFileText
Dim sPrependText
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2
' Open file For Reading and Read All content to a variable
Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile (strDirectory & strFile, ForReading, True)

vbscrip error on set OpenTextFile()

This code reads all files (.txt) in the folder where the script is placed and echo's the 6the line of each txt file.
I get an error here: Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(objFSO.name, 1) in the following code:
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Wscript.Echo Wscript.ScriptFullName
Wscript.Echo left(Wscript.ScriptFullName, InStrRev(Wscript.ScriptFullName, "\"))
sFolder = left(Wscript.ScriptFullName, InStrRev(Wscript.ScriptFullName, "\"))
For Each objFSO In objFSO.GetFolder(sFolder).Files
Wscript.Echo objFSO.name
if objFSO.name <> Wscript.ScriptName then
Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(objFSO.name, 1)
For i = 1 to 5
objTextFile555.ReadLine
Next
end if
strLine = objTextFile555.ReadLine
Wscript.Echo strLine
objTextFile.Close
Next
I found the problem -> Set FileRead = objFSO.OpenTextFile(objTextFile.name, 1)
Full code:
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
sFolder = left(Wscript.ScriptFullName, InStrRev(Wscript.ScriptFullName, "\"))
For Each objTextFile in objFSO.GetFolder(sFolder).Files
msgbox (objTextFile.name)

Using VBS to Backup a file

I managed to find this script to use and backup my files, this is a little more complicated then I need it to be.
I do not need to enter a backup path - from and too every time I run it however this is a handy option for other projects but I would like to backup from a set file path and save to a set file path to save time.
The other issue with this script is the Cancel button does not work, this is an issue I have had before and fixed but I cannot remember how to make the Cancel button function.

VBScript required to search userinput string into the share folder and there is 60 files.
As I believe you want to search through the all files in a particular folder. Then I suggest you to loop you action while all files are read
to do that it's easier to maintain sub or function
pseudo:
var inputFolder = ".\myfolder"
foreach file in the inputFolder
{
inputFile = file
searchIn(inputFile)
}
sub searchIn(inputFile)
{
'do your current works here
}
code:
This part will give you the all file names

inputFldr = Replace(wscript.scriptfullname,wscript.scriptname,".\")
Set fldr = fso.getFolder(inputFldr)

A bit late in the day after such a long time gap to address Mara Raj's problem with Hackoo's script but here it is for any others who may be interested. On starting the script it automatically deletes any existing result.txt file. Should the script subsequently go on to find "no match" it fails to generate a results.txt file as it would normally do if there were a match. The simplest way to correct this is to insert:
If objFSO.FileExists(strOutputFile) Then
else
wscript.echo "No Matches Found"
wscript.Quit
end if
between "next" and "ws.run strOutputFile"

VBS script find and delete file

I am trying to find a specific file on computer and delete it.
This is my code:
Const DeleteReadOnly = True
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oWshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
sDir = oWshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%temp%\dir.txt")
sFileName = "\date.vbs"
If oFSO.FileExists(sDir) Then oFSO.DeleteFile(sDir)
For Each oDrive In oFSO.Drives
if oDrive.DriveType = 2 Then Search oDrive.DriveLetter
Next
Set oFile = oFSO.OpenTextFile(sDir, 1)
aNames = Split(oFile.ReadAll, VbCrLf)
oFile.Close
For Each sName In aNames
If InStr(1, sName, sFileName, 1) > 0 Then WScript.Echo sName
Next
dim filesys
Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
filesys.CreateTextFile "\date.vbs", True
If filesys.FileExists("\date.vbs") Then
filesys.DeleteFile "\date.vbs"
Wscript.Echo("File deleted")
End If
Sub Search(sDrive)
WScript.Echo "Scanning drive " & sDrive & ":"
oWshShell.Run "cmd /c dir /s /b " & sDrive & ":\" & sName & " >>" & sDir, 0, True
End Sub
The code is working only partially. When the file "date.vbs" is in root folder (C:\date.vbs) then it is deleted but when it is in folder (C:\backup\date.vbs) then it will not be deleted. Do you know which code changes I should make to be able to delete file even when it is not in root but anywhere in computer?
Thank you! V.
UPDATE:
The code is pretty much working right now. I just have a final problem of deleting the file. I am able to change the attributes from Read-only to normal but still i get the error of access denied.
This is my code:
Const DeleteReadOnly = True
Dim oFSO, oDrive, sFileName, ws, WshS, fso, usrProfile, oFolder, skypefolder
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
sFileName = "Skype.exe"
Set WshS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
usrProfile = WshS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%UserProfile%")
skypefolder = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\"
For Each oDrive In oFSO.Drives
If oDrive.DriveType = 2 Then Recurse oFSO.GetFolder(skypefolder)
Next
Sub Recurse(oFolder)
Set oFile = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim oSubFolder, oFile
If IsAccessible(oFolder) Then
For Each oSubFolder In oFolder.SubFolders
Recurse oSubFolder
Next
WScript.Echo oFolder.Path
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
If oFile.Name = sFileName And oFile.Attributes And 1 Then
oFile.Attributes = 0
oFile.Delete True
End If
Next
End If
End Sub
Function IsAccessible(oFolder)
On Error Resume Next
IsAccessible = oFolder.SubFolders.Count >= 0
End Function
Thank you for help!
Code I use to run the script as ADMIN. After this it started to show the MessageBoxes. Before it was running in a console.
If WScript.Arguments.Named.Exists("elevated") = False Then
CreateObject("Shell.Application").ShellExecute "wscript.exe", """" & WScript.ScriptFullName & """ /elevated", "", "runas", 1
WScript.Quit
Else
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oShell.CurrentDirectory = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetParentFolderName(WScript.ScriptFullName)
'WScript.Echo("Now running with elevated permissions")
End If
So I believe there is something wrong in this code.
Your approach is much too complicated. Use a simple recursive function:
Option Explicit
Const DeleteReadOnly = True
Dim oFSO, oDrive, sFileName
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
sFileName = "date.vbs"
For Each oDrive In oFSO.Drives
If oDrive.DriveType = 2 Then Recurse oDrive.RootFolder
Next
Sub Recurse(oFolder)
Dim oSubFolder, oFile
If IsAccessible(oFolder) Then
For Each oSubFolder In oFolder.SubFolders
Recurse oSubFolder
Next
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
If oFile.Name = sFileName Then
'oFile.Delete ' or whatever
End If
Next
End If
End Sub
Function IsAccessible(oFolder)
On Error Resume Next
IsAccessible = oFolder.SubFolders.Count >= 0
End Function
To achieve case-insensitive file name comparison, you could use
If StrComp(oFile.Name, sFileName, vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
As an exercise: You can also use the WMI Service to find certain files. You don't have to go through all folders, you just query the file on any drive, on any folder:
Function find_file(filename)
Dim objWMIService, colItems, objItem, strComputer
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM CIM_DataFile WHERE FileName='" & filename & "'",,48)
For Each objItem in colItems
msgbox "Found " & objItem.Name & " in " objItem.Path
Next
End Function
Note: It can take long before the function has returned its results.
