I couldn't get this working under Kix, but I'd thought to share it with you anyways.

It's not that it's not possible with kix but it's beyond my grasp. Maybe someone else (Shawn, CJ, Bryce?) could find the time to convert it to kix code.

code:

---

'Change Word2K User Settings
Set ObjWSH = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Set WrdApp = WScript.CreateObject("Word.Application")
Tuser=objWSH.Username
Set User = GetObject("WinNT://this.domain.nl/" &Tuser)
Fname=User.fullname
WrdApp.UserName     = Fname
WrdApp.UserInitials = Tuser
WrdApp.UserAddress  = "123 Main Street" & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "12341234 CA " & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "CHIGAGO"
wrdapp.quit

Here is the mistake

WordUser.vbs

code:

---

'Change Word2K User Settings
Set ObjWSH = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Set WrdApp = WScript.CreateObject("Word.Application")
username=objWSH.Username
Set User = GetObject("WinNT://activesky/" &username)
Fname=User.fullname
WrdApp.UserName     = Fname
WrdApp.UserInitials = username
WrdApp.UserAddress  = "123 Main Street" & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "12341234 CA " & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & "CHIGAGO"
wrdapp.quit

---

The User should have been username.

Here is the KiX2k version:

WordUser.k2k

code:

---

break on
cls

;Change Word2K User Settings
"Updating MSWord user information for @userid..."

; create Word Application Object
$WrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")

; Setup Word User Parameters
$WrdApp.UserName     = @fullname
$WrdApp.UserInitials = @userid
$WrdApp.UserAddress  = "123 Main Street" + Chr(13) + Chr(10) + "12341234 CA " + Chr(13) + Chr(10) + "CHIGAGO"

; Close Word Application Object
$WrdApp.quit()

"done!" ?

Note - this KiX script requires that MSWord is NOT running.

I was so focused on VB (the dark side ) I didn't even think of using the good old @FULLNAME & @USERID in the conversion
