svss Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hi, i have a text file which generates a list of usernames from a command in Windows. Every user is visible in this text file on a seperate line. I would like to parse this info for each user into another text file. The username should be parsed at a specific place in the second txt file so that i can run a specific command on this 2nd text file. So for every username i need to amend to this 2nd text file. Could someone help me with this one? I start to tear my hair out. Thanks in advance S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based off the limited information you have given us it would be difficult for us to help you. How about some examples of the text files and an example of the end result.

svss Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Sorry about this, please see attached username file and file2 where these usernames should be added/replaced. So in txt file 2 the entry XYZ should be replaced with the username. And for every username i need to amend this info to the text file. The purpose once i run the new file all users are getting transfred to the new Exchange server. Any questions let me know. thx again S.members2.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sulfurious Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 There are numerous ways to handle strings. An easy way would be to create the file over again, if the syntax is repeatable except for the "xyz". Read file 1 getting the name, FileWriteLine to file 2, inserting the file 1 line text into the "xyz" spot. Move on to next "xyz" read and write. Add Header or Footer text before or after the "xyz" routine. You could also grab the name from file 1, and do a StringInStr search for ",CN=Users,DC=vebnet,DC=com", and then edit that line to include the "xyz", providing all data is repeatable. Or a host of other ways. Sul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebearr Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Is this something like what you are looking for? Const $ForReading = 0, $ForAppending = 1, $ForWriting = 2, $EachString = 0, $WholeString = 1 Const $Leading = 1, $Trailing = 2 $file1 = @ScriptDir & "\textFile1.txt" $file2 = @ScriptDir & "\textFile2.txt" $combined = @ScriptDir & "\output.txt" $combinedH = FileOpen($combined, $ForWriting) $Users = FileRead($file1, FileGetSize($file1)) $UsersA = StringSplit($Users, @CRLF, $WholeString) $Template = FileRead($file2, FileGetSize($file2)) $TemplateA = StringSplit($Template, "CN=XYZ", $WholeString) For $i = 1 to $UsersA[0] $CurrUser = StringStripWS($UsersA[$i], $Leading + $Trailing) $line = $TemplateA[1] If $TemplateA[0] > 1 Then For $j = 2 to $TemplateA[0] $line = $line & "CN=" & $CurrUser & $TemplateA[$j] Next EndIf FileWriteLine($combinedH, $line) Next FileClose($combinedH) BlueBearrOddly enough, this is what I do for fun.
