Hi All,
I am trying to create a script that search for a specific string and change a part of it.
The "vmware-domain" should be a wild card name and not the name that exists.
The purpose of this script is to find the old domain and change it to the new one.
I have copied and pasted some old cript that i have but i have trouble getting this one to work as i suck in VB :(
Would really appreciate your help

Regards,
Buff

Hello,

I have had a look at your code and put into something a little more manageable... well for me anyways lol :)

Firstly you missed out the End If on your If Statement and you will get an error on the following line:

strText = objFileR.ReadAll

As there is nothing in the text file so it cant read it and will get some sort of End Of File error.

You would need to write something to the text file first before it can be read. What is the text file for?

Many Thanks

James

Hi buffi,

if changing

strNewText = Replace(strText, "srtOldDomain", "strNewDomain")

to

strNewText = Replace(strText, strOldDomain, strNewDomain )

doesn't help, post your parameters.txt file.

Hi morpheus83uk,

please test your code before posting. You are using "Option Explicit",
but don't Dim all variables (e.g. objFSO); opening the same file twice
isn't a good idea either; you should have caught the wrong quotes
in the Replace call.

Hi,

Thanks for that I thought I did dim everything must have missed one or two.

I think I was looking at it a little more complicated before I posted so I got a little confused but well at least someone spotted the quotes.

Thanks

James
