Hi all

Following on from the previous post, we have setup the lines as shown below which works ok

if ingroup ("normal school")
use y: "\\$lserver\the y drive$"
use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$"

if @userid="user1"
use k: "\\$lserver\user1_desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user1_desktop")
else
if @userid="user2"
use k: "\\$lserver\user2_desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user2_desktop")
else
if @userid="user3"
use k: "\\$lserver\user3_desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user3_desktop")
else
use k: "\\$lserver\front office desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","Staff Docs")

endif

if ingroup ("school admin")

use i: "\\$lserver\sim$"

use y: "\\$lserver\the-y-drive$"
use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$
endif
CLC Groups
if ingroup ("clc staff")

use o: "\\$lserver\clc normal home folders$"
use y: "\\$lserver\clc-staff$"

use m: "\\$lserver\online$" ;drive mapping for SIR icons
use h: "\\$lserver\global" ;drive mapping for SIR
if @userid="user45"
use k: "\\stmsite-rc1\user45_desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user45_desktop")
else
if @userid="user46"
use k: "\\$lserver\user46_desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user46_desktop")
else
use k: "\\$lserver\clc staff desktop$"
DbgMessage("Info ","clc staff drives")

Endif

Works fine if you are a member of the first group (if ingroup ("normal school") also maps ok in you are a member of school admin as well

But when you are not member of either group none of the drive mapping works for anything below that section it seems to end the script and return back to the main script.

Thanks for any help

Everytime you use a IF statment, you must finish it wil a EndIF
code:
if ingroup ("normal school")
	use y: "\\$lserver\the y drive$"
	use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$"
	
	if @userid="user1"
		use k: "\\$lserver\user1_desktop$"
		DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user1_desktop")
	Else 
		if @userid="user2"
			use k: "\\$lserver\user2_desktop$"
			DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user2_desktop")
		Else
			if @userid="user3"
				use k: "\\$lserver\user3_desktop$"
				DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user3_desktop")
			Else
				use k: "\\$lserver\front office desktop$"
				DbgMessage("Info ","Staff Docs")
			EndIF
		EndIF
	Endif
Endif

This is how your code is executing. I do not think it is what you want. Proper use of Endif is required as Richard states.

code:
if ingroup ("normal school")
    use y: "\\$lserver\the y drive$"
    use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$"

    if @userid="user1"
        use k: "\\$lserver\user1_desktop$"
        DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user1_desktop")
    else
        if @userid="user2"
            use k: "\\$lserver\user2_desktop$"
            DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user2_desktop")
        else
            if @userid="user3"
                use k: "\\$lserver\user3_desktop$"
                DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user3_desktop")
            else
                use k: "\\$lserver\front office desktop$"
                DbgMessage("Info ","Staff Docs")
            endif

            if ingroup ("school admin")
                use i: "\\$lserver\sim$"
                use y: "\\$lserver\the-y-drive$"
                use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$
            endif

;CLC Groups
            if ingroup ("clc staff")
                use o: "\\$lserver\clc normal home folders$"
                use y: "\\$lserver\clc-staff$"
                use m: "\\$lserver\online$" ;drive mapping for SIR icons
                use h: "\\$lserver\global" ;drive mapping for SIR 
                if @userid="user45"
                    use k: "\\stmsite-rc1\user45_desktop$"
                    DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user45_desktop")
                else
                    if @userid="user46"
                        use k: "\\$lserver\user46_desktop$"
                        DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user46_desktop")
                    else
                        use k: "\\$lserver\clc staff desktop$"
                        DbgMessage("Info ","clc staff drives")
                    Endif
Oh and

CLC Groups
the way you have it posted will cause an error.

Here we go this should work.... I hope [Big Grin]

code:
If InGroup ("normal school")
	Use y: "\\$lserver\the y drive$"
	Use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$"

	$x = 1
	For $Loop = $x to 3
		If @userid="user" + $x
			Use k: "\\$lserver\user" + $x "_desktop$"
		Else 
			Use k: "\\$lserver\front office desktop$"
			DbgMessage("Info ","Staff Docs")
		EndIf

		If $x = 1
			DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user1_desktop")
		Else
			If $x = 2 OR 3
				DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user" + $x +"_desktop")
			EndIf

		EndIf
	Next
Else
	Use i: "\\$lserver\sim$"
	Use y: "\\$lserver\the-y-drive$"
	Use w: "\\$lServer\sch Staff Docs$"
	
	If InGroup ("clc staff")
		Use o: "\\$lserver\clc normal home folders$"
		Use y: "\\$lserver\clc-staff$"
		Use m: "\\$lserver\online$" ;drive mapping for SIR icons
		Use h: "\\$lserver\global" ;drive mapping for SIR 
	Else
		If @userid="user45"
			Use k: "\\stmsite-rc1\user45_desktop$"
			DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user45_desktop")
		Else
			If @userid="user46"
				Use k: "\\$lserver\user46_desktop$"
				DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user46_desktop")
			Else
				Use k: "\\$lserver\clc staff desktop$"
				DbgMessage("Info ","clc staff drives")
			EndIf
		EndIf	
	EndIf
EndIf

thanks for the relpies

what i need is desktops to follow selected users around diffrent machines

i have just tried adding a block of endif's to the end of the section which made no diffrence

do i need to

if @userid="user46" use k: "\\$lserver\user46_desktop$" DbgMessage("Info ","personnel drive mapped user46_desktop") else use k: "\\$lserver\clc staff desktop$" DbgMessage("Info ","clc staff drives") Endif

for each user that needs thier own desktop

Richard

What I have got if different groups with selected users within the group needing the desktop to follow then ie the named users per group with the rest to have a default desktop. The file was broken into “normal school” user group, “school admin” user group and “clc staff” user group with named users per group

So following your post can I use the loops within each group check for the user name ???

thanks

Or you can see if Select ...case...Endselect would do what you want.

You should also keep variables outside strings and the $ signs of the hidden shares might need doubling up as described in the Kixtart Manual.

You should also properly indent code so that one can actually read the different code blocks.

Before mapping a drive letter, the drive might need to be unmapped if users tend to map their own drives via
code:
use r: /delete /persistent
or use any of the MapDrive() UDFs for all your mappings to be consistent.

thanks to all who replied

i have ended up mapping the default drive at the start of the ingroup test then doing a seperate if else for each user ( deleting the default desktop if the user matches)

if ingroup ("normal school")

use y: "\\$lserver\the y drive$"
use w: "\\$lserver\sch staff docs$"

use k: /delete/persistent
use k: "\\$lserver\sch staff desktop$"
dbgmessage("info ","staff desktop")

if @userid="user1"
use k: /delete/persistent
use k: "\\$lserver\user_desktop$"
dbgmessage("info ","personnel drive mapped user_desktop")
else

endif

not the best way to do it but it works for the moment until i get time to look into some more
