Nikon2ks Nikon2ks Lurker Registered: 2005-05-18 Posts: 2	Aye yes i know i'm a newb to scripting and this is probably very easy but I need this done so we can continue our Exchange 2003 Migration. I need to add some lines into our logon script that will delete this file everytime a user logs on. C:\Documents and Settings\%Logonname%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Exchange.nk2 Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks

Dont worry we have all been there You need to use "Del" For more information please follow this link Del Or even check out the manual.

You can use %USERPROFILE% or better still, pull the path from the registry. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

This method might be better

Code:

$nk2=ReadValue('HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders', 'AppData')
If Exist($nk2+'\Microsoft\Outlook\*.nk2')=1  ;Searches for files ending with .NK2 and deletes them.
  Del($nk2+'\Microsoft\Outlook\*.nk2')
EndIf
