HOw to make this VBS script work in AutoIt

[Steven Meier]

The VBS code below is to create a mailbox for an already created active directory user (Mail enable a user).

I would like to have this work in Autoit but am a bit lost.

Cheers

Steve

CODE

VBS code.

strServer = "Paris"

strExchangeOrg = "CPNou"

strDomain = "DC=CPEXCH,DC=COM"

' These are the defaults, compare with your server and amend.

strAdminGroup = "First Administrative Group"

strStorageGroup = "First Storage Group"

strStoreName = "Mailbox Store (" & strServer & ")"

' Build LDAP string

strMailbox = strMailbox & "CN=" & strStoreName

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=" & strStorageGroup

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=InformationStore"

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=" & strServer

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=Servers"

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=" & strAdminGroup

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=Administrative Groups"

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=" + strExchangeOrg

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=Microsoft Exchange"

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=Services"

strMailbox = strMailbox & ",CN=Configuration"

strMailbox = strMailbox & "," & strDomain

WScript.Echo "Mailbox " & vbCR & strMailbox

WScript.Quit

Hallo Steven Meier,

First you can embed your .vbs-script in your Autoit with the function FileInstall() oder FileOpen() & FileWrite() & FileClose()

Second you can run your vbs-script with the function Run() or RunWait()

If you want to exchange information from vbs-script to an AutoIt_script you can write the information in a file during the vbs-execution and then you can read this file with FileOpen() & FileWrite() & FileClose() . Or you StoutRead()

This are the possibilties for me. Bye Johannes

Wow, you must have thought you provided some really good information if you had to quote yourself twice after your initial post...

I would prefer not to call a file as I am using this in an APP I have created for Helpdesk people to make it easy for creation of active directory users etc and basic tasks without having to go through multiple apps or multiple servers.

I would like to place the converted VBS script into autoit and compile and would prefer not to be outputting to files and then re inputting as this seems inefficient.

I know it can be done but I dont have the skill to convert it.

Cheers
