I really need some quick tips here.
I've got this VBScript script which sends an e-mail. And I want to do several checks to see if an attribute is true and if it is, write an additional line in the mail.
How can I do this? This is part of the script:
obMessage.HTMLBody = ""_
& "<MENU>"_
& "<LI type = square>This is a line</i>."_
I want something which looks like this:
obMessage.HTMLBody = ""_
& "<MENU>"_
If statement1 = true Then
& "<LI type = square>This is an additional line</i>."_
end if
Preferrably, could some select statements be made? I don't really mind what the code looks like, I just want it to work as soon as possible :)
It will look like spaghetti code no matter how you do it. This is one of the most straight forward approach:
obMessage.HTMLBody = & "<MENU>"
if statement1 then
obMessage.HTMLBody = obMessage.HTMLBody & "<LI type=""square"">This is a line</LI>."
end if
if statement2 then
obMessage.HTMLBody = obMessage.HTMLBody & "<LI type=""square"">This is another line</LI>."
end if
However, I suggest that you concatenate the lines to a temporary string, the assign the resulting string to obMessage.HTMLBody, such as:
Dim Foo
Foo = "<MENU>"
if statement1 then
Foo = Foo & "<LI type=""square"">This is a line</LI>."
end if
.
.
.
obMessage.HTMLBody = Foo
Something like:
obMessage.HTMLBody = "Begin Text" & _
IIf(statement1 = true, "<LI type = square>This is an additional line</i>.", "") & _
"Further text"
Should work ok.

How i can read this xml file
<Subs>
<Sub Report="BusinessSummarySubs" EMails="lalla#yahoo.com; haha#yahoo.com">
<Sub Report="PlayerSubs" EMails="hehe#hotmail.com">
</Subs>
and replace #VARIABLE in BusinesSummarySubs.txt with EMails value in
Here is the content(part of the content) from BusinessSumarySubs.txt
CType(extensionParams(0),ParameterValue).Name = "TO"
CType(extensionParams(0),ParameterValue).Label = ""
CType(extensionParams(0),ParameterValue).Value = "#VARIABLE"
If you look here, you'll see how to search for and to access attributes. Follow the link chain to 'the same for text' and do a mental diff, if you want to get a skeleton for a minimal XML processing script to use for your next task.
Single placeholder substitution in VBScript is easy: just use Replace:
>> attr = "lalla#yahoo.com; haha#yahoo.com"
>> content = "... .Value = ""#VARIABLE"" ..."
>> ph = "#VARIABLE"
>> WScript.Echo Replace(content, ph, attr)
>>
... .Value = "lalla#yahoo.com; haha#yahoo.com" ...

I have been a longtime lurker of stackoverflow and have now decided to join. I am trying to pull a list of every Functional Location out of SAP using BAPI. When I run this code it returns with an empty table. I dont have very much experiance with BAPI and I am trying to teach myself. Can someone please help with what im missing to make this work.
Thanks,
See code bellow:
Dim sapFunc As New SAPFunctionsOCX.SAPFunctions
Dim objServer = sapFunc.Connection
objServer.Client = "101"
objServer.User = "MyUserName"
objServer.Ticket = "MyKey"
objServer.system = "PEC"
objServer.MessageServer = "MyMessagerServer"
objServer.GroupName = "PUBLIC"
If objServer.logon(0, True) <> True Then
MsgBox("Key Rejected")
Exit Sub
End If
Dim objRfcFunc As SAPFunctionsOCX.Function
objRfcFunc = sapFunc.Add("BAPI_FUNCLOC_GETLIST")
'System.Console.Write(objRfcFunc.Description)
If objRfcFunc.Call = False Then
MsgBox("Error occured - " & objRfcFunc.Exception)
Exit Sub
End If
Dim tab = objRfcFunc.Tables("FUNCLOC_LIST")
System.Console.WriteLine("Input start:")
For I = 1 To tab.RowCount
For j = 1 To tab.ColumnCount
System.Console.Write(tab.ColumnName(j) + ":")
System.Console.WriteLine(tab.Cell(I, j))
Next
Next
System.Console.WriteLine("Input end.")
I don't intend for this to be an answer, but if it helps then that's good. If it doesn't, I'll delete it.
With objRfcFunc.tables("funcloc_ra")
If .RowCount < 1 Then .Rows.Add
.cell(1, 1) = "I"
.cell(1, 2) = "EQ"
.cell(1, 3) = "Your Func Loc"
End With
Do this after setting objRfcFunc and before calling it. The call will use these parameters.
I means to Include, EQ means you want to find items equal to the value in low.
I'm trying to find a way to enhance the reliability of my script. It already works but can be thrown off with a simple extra space in the imported text file.
So I'd like to change my script to Readline if I can find a way to do something like:
Example of text in the .txt file:
FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY PLEASE FILE:
AT OR WEST OF A LINE RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT
FLIGHTS OVER EBONY PLEASE FILE:
AT OR WEST OF A LINE RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT
I know the following doesn't work but if there was a simple modification this would be good.
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Return = WshShell.Run("C:\Downloads\software\putty.exe -load "testing")
set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\Users\AW\Desktop\Entries1.txt")
strLine = objFile.ReadAll
If InStr(strLine1, "OVER TUSKY PLEASE") and InStr(strLine2, "BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT") Then
trans307="TUSKY"
ind306="4"
WHAT I'M USING NOW:
I edit the text file in notepad++ to FIND & REPLACE "\n" with "" and "\r" with " " and then it's all one text string and I search for strings within that string.
If InStr(strLine, "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY PLEASE FILE: AT OR WEST OF A LINE ..RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT") _
or InStr(strLine, "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY PLEASE FILE: AT OR WEST OF A LINE RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT...DIRECT") Then
trans308C="TUSKY"
ind308C="4"
Problem: If the creators of the text file put another space " " anywhere in this line "AT OR WEST OF A LINE RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT" the script will not identify the string. In the above example I have had to create another or InStr(strLine, "") statement with an extra space or with a couple of dots.
UPDATE:
I will try something like:
set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\Users\AW\Desktop\Entries1.txt")
strLine1 = objFile.Readline(1)
strLine2 = objFile.Readline(2)
If InStr(strLine1, "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY") and InStr(strLine2, "RBV..LLUND..BAYYS..PUT..DIRECT") Then
trans1="TUSKY"
ind1="4"
and see if I can get that to read 2 lines at a time, and loop through the text file.
If you're scared of regex and looking for an alternative, you could create a clunky function to add to your script. Based on your samples, it would seem that fullstops are also never normally used for normal purposes and tend to represent spaces. (I would recommend using Regex instead!)
Using these presumptions, you could create a clunky function like this, that looks for fullstops, and converts them to spaces, removing extra spaces.. Obviously, this relies heavily on your input source files not changing too much - you really should be using a regex to work this stuff out properly.
You could test for the basic expected results using something like the function below.
For example say you had a line of text set in firLine with multiple spaces or fullstops, the function would recognize this:
firLine = "THIS.IS.A.TEST..YOU...SEE MULTIPLE SPACES"
if instr(sanitize(firLine),"THIS IS A TEST YOU SEE MULTIPLE SPACES") then
wscript.echo "Found it"
End If
Here's the clunky function that you could just paste at the end of your script:
Function sanitize(srStr)
Dim preSanitize, srC, spaceMarker
preSanitize = ""
for srC = 1 to len(srStr)
if mid(srStr, srC, 1) = "." then
preSanitize = preSanitize & " "
else
preSanitize = preSanitize & mid(srStr, srC, 1)
End If
spaceMarker = false
sanitize = ""
for srC = 1 to len(preSanitize)
If mid(preSanitize, srC, 1) = " " then
if spaceMarker = false then
sanitize = sanitize & mid(preSanitize, srC, 1)
spaceMarker = true
End If
else
sanitize = sanitize & mid(preSanitize, srC, 1)
spaceMarker = false
End If
Next
End Function
InStr() is a good tool for checking whether a strings contains a fixed/literal string or not. To allow for variation, you should use Regular Expressions (see this or that).
First of all, however, you should work on your specs. Describe in plain words and with some samples what you consider (not) to be a match.
E.g.: A string containing the words "FLIGHTS", "OVER", and "TUSKY" in that order with at least one space in between is a match - "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY", "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKY"; "FLIGHTS OVER TUSKANY" is a 'near miss' - what about "AIRFLIGHTS OVER TUSKY"?
GREAT NEWS! I finally figured out how to do this.
Here is a snippet from "Entries1.txt"
FLIGHTS OVER BRADD KANNI PLEASE FILE:
VIA J174.RIFLE..ACK..DIRECT
OR RBV.J62.ACK..DIRECT
FLIGHTS OVER KANNI WHALE PLEASE FILE:
VIA J174.RIFLE..ACK..DIRECT OR
FLIGHTS OVER WHALE PLEASE FILE:"
ETC, ETC
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\Users\AW\Desktop\Entries1.txt")
Do until objFile.AtEndOfStream
firLine = objFile.ReadLine
If InStr(firLine, "FLIGHTS OVER KANNI WHALE PLEASE") Then
secLine = objFile.ReadLine
If InStr(secLine, "J174.RIFLE..ACK..DIRECT") Then
'I'm going to change the below once I piece it all together.
WScript.Echo "works"
Else WScript.Echo "Not found"
'cut, paste and modify all my "IF" statements below
End If
End If
loop
I would like to find the price with 2 year contract and display it in a message box. Sofar I have:
Dim MyPage
Dim Price
Set MyPage=CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
MyPage.load("http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?item=phoneFirst&action=viewPhoneDetail&selectedPhoneId=5723")
Wscript.Sleep 2000
Set Price = MyPage.getElementsByTagName("span")
For Each Elem In Price
MsgBox(Elem.firstChild.nodeValue)
Next
I understand that I am completely wrong, but I don't even know where to start. I love writing simple programs like this, but I just need help getting started. Any ideas will help!
Here a better version, uses the HTMLFile object
Dim HTMLDoc, XML, URL, table
Set HTMLDoc = CreateObject("HTMLFile")
Set XML = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
URL = "http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?item=phoneFirst&action=viewPhoneDetail&selectedPhoneId=5723"
With XML
.Open "GET", URL, False
.Send
HTMLDoc.Write .responseText
End With
Set spans = HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("span")
for each span in spans
WScript.Echo span.innerHTML
next
'=><SPAN>Set Location</SPAN>
'=>Set Location
'=><SPAN>Submit</SPAN>
'=>Submit
'=>Connect with us
the control you use is for reading XML documents, you need something like this
'Create an xmlhttp object, the string depends on the version that is installed
'on your pc could eg also be "Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.5.0"
Set xmlhttp = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.Open "GET", "http://admin:pasword#10.0.0.2/doc/ppp.htm", False
xmlhttp.Send
text=xmlhttp.responseText
wscript.echo text
Set xmlhttp = Nothing
Run a search in your registry for XMLHTTP to get the right string/version for the identifier.
To get the tag from the html you can use the following
text = "blabla <span>this is what i need</span> bla bla<span>second item</span> end"
function getElementsByTagName(sTextToSeachIn, tag)
answer = ""
separator = ""
set oRegExpre = new RegExp
with oRegExpre
.IgnoreCase = true
.Global = true
.MultiLine = True
.Pattern = "<" & tag & ">(.*?)</" & tag & ">"
end with
set oColMatches = oRegExpre.Execute(sTextToSeachIn)
for each match in oColMatches
answer = answer & separator & match.subMatches(0)
separator = "|" 'use something that's not in the spancontents
next
if separator <> "" then
getElementsByTagName = split(answer, separator)
else
getElementsByTagName = array()
end if
end function
for each tag in getElementsByTagName(text, "span")
wscript.echo tag
next
'=>this is what i need
'=>second item
There are better techniques and certainly better languages than vbscript to do this, i suggest to take a look at Ruby which exels in such things.
Alex, in response to your comment about getting a cookie and running a javascript in HTMLFile, here a ruby script i found, hopes it helps you at some point, it reads in a page, passes it to the HTLMFile object and in that DOM executes a remote javascript file. It also gives you an idea of the combined power of activeX and Ruby.
require "win32ole"
$jsxpath_uri = "http://svn.coderepos.org/share/lang/javascript/javascript-xpath/trunk/release/javascript-xpath-latest-cmp.js"
uri, xpath = "http://gist.github.com/gists", "//div[#class='info']/span/a"
http = WIN32OLE.new('MSXML2.XMLHTTP')
http.Open "GET", uri, false
http.Send
text = http.responseText
dom = WIN32OLE.new("htmlfile")
dom.Write(text)
dom.parentWindow.eval(open($jsxpath_uri){|f| f.read })
items = dom.evaluate(xpath, dom, nil, 7, nil)
len = items.snapshotLength
(0...len).each do |i|
item = items.snapshotItem(i)
puts item.innerHTML
end
I'm gettinga n error message in line 8 when I try to call out the script to stop when it finds teh attribute in the Web page: field in AD.
Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
strUserDN = objSysInfo.UserName
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUserDN)
strwWWHomePage = objItem.Get("wWWHomePage")
If wWWHomePage 6 Then
wscript.quit
Else
Set ppt = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
ppt.Visible = True
ppt.Presentations.Open "\\abngan01\tracking\ppt.pptx"
End If
You have:
If wWWHomePage 6 Then
I'm assuming you want it to say:
If wWWHomePage = 6 Then
Since the missing "=" will cause an error, but since that code really doesn't do anything anyway, other than just abort the script, you could simplify your code by only taking action if that value is not set, for example:
If objItem.Get("wWWHomePage") <> 6 Then
Set ppt = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
ppt.Visible = True
ppt.Presentations.Open "\\abngan01\tracking\ppt.pptx"
End If
I'm also assuming "6" is some sort of flag you've set yourself, you might want to use something a little more descriptive like "PPTSTATUS006", or something along those lines.
