Local user password

I'd like to pass a password from an inputbox. The example below gives no errors, but doesn't change the users password.

How can I pass the input password variable into the script?

$UsrPW = InputBox("Enter new password", "Enter a new password to set for local user USER.", "", "*")

Run("net user markf" & $UsrPW)

Hi..

the best way to solve such problems, is.. make a msgbox which displays the complete string you want to run.. so you see if there are errors.

for your problem, i suspect a missing space, because you concatenate "net user markf" with $UsrPW which will result to: "net user markfpassword (no space !! )

so change it to:

Run("net user markf " & $UsrPW)       ;note the added space

or you could just run this

run("RunDLL32.EXE shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL nusrmgr.cpl")

RunDLL32.EXE shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL nusrmgr.cpl
