Scripting

any further clarification???
Your question too broad...

I wish to add few links to favorites to all profiles on enterprise wide systems. I though there could be some package which can be installed for all users.

then finally i worked on a vbscript script... attaching the same in case some can suggest better...

' Add a Web Site to the Favorites Menu

' Windows Server 2003 : Yes
' Windows XP : Yes
' Windows 2000 : Yes
' Windows NT 4.0 : Yes
' Windows 98 : No

Const ADMINISTRATIVE_TOOLS = 6
Const FAVORITES = &H6&

Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(ADMINISTRATIVE_TOOLS)'dooo


Set objFolderItem = objFolder.Self
'WScript.Echo objFolderItem.Path
objFolder.NewFolder ("Navigate Extreme")


'objFavoriteItem.NewFolder("Navigate Extreme")
Set fav = objFolder.ParseName("Navigate Extreme")
'WScript.Echo fav.Path


Set objshell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objfav = objshell.NameSpace(favorites)
Set objfav1 = objfav.ParseName("Navigate Extreme").GetFolder
objfav1.NewFolder ("Sales")
objfav1.NewFolder ("General")
objfav1.NewFolder ("Connectivity and Applications")

Set objfav2 = objFav1.ParseName ("Sales")
'WScript.Echo objfav2.Path
pathsales = objfav2.Path'assign path to variable for sales
'WScript.Echo pathsales'printing variable value for testing
Set objfav2 = objFav1.ParseName ("General")
'WScript.Echo objfav2.Path
pathgeneral = objfav2.Path'assign path to variable for general
'WScript.Echo pathgeneral'printing variable value for testing
Set objfav2 = objFav1.ParseName ("Connectivity and Applications")
'WScript.Echo objfav2.Path
pathconnect = objfav2.Path'assign path to variable for connectivity and applications
'WScript.Echo pathconnect'printing variable value for testing

'Set objFolderItem = objFolder.ParseName("Navigate Extreme")
'objFolderItem.Path

'WScript.Echo objFolderItem.Path
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
strDesktopFld = objFolderItem.Path
'Set objURLShortcut = objShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktopFld & "\MSDN.url")
'objURLShortcut.TargetPath = "http://msdn.microsoft.com"
'objURLShortcut.Save

'******************************** Connectivity and Apps
Set objURLShortcut = objShell.CreateShortcut(pathconnect & "\Webmail.url")
objURLShortcut.TargetPath = "https://mail.extremenetworks.com/exchange/logon.asp"
objURLShortcut.Save

'******************************** Connectivity and Apps
Set objURLShortcut = objShell.CreateShortcut(pathconnect & "\Connect to Extreme Networks.url")
objURLShortcut.TargetPath = "http://www.extremenetworks.com/connect/index.html"
objURLShortcut.Save
'******************************** General
Set objURLShortcut = objShell.CreateShortcut(pathgeneral & "\Facilities.url")
objURLShortcut.TargetPath = "http://intranet.extremenetworks.com/DMS/home/content/Facilities"
objURLShortcut.Save


this will only add to logged in user's profile...also it's in a raw state ..need refinement

my script not working on Windows 2000...anyone any clue??

On win 200 machine is the script engine up to 5.6? and if you uncomment this line on win2k machine 'WScript.Echo fav.Path does this give the correct answer?
