yer its writing the txt file cus and ive linked it to the txt files , if i delete the txt file n re run the script the txt files is the new 1 with hte new channels, for sum reason it aint refreshing and updating the txt file

n firewall is allowin it all

But is it writing the text file there every time? I had this problem and when I searched my HD I found 5 copies of the txt file in different places. This explained why I was only getting occaisonal updates. I fixed it by adding the complete path to the script.

Code:

Set f=fs.CreateTextFile("c:\Program files\Samurize\UKTV.txt",true)

where do i put that code??

Sleepy · 3 Nov 2003 at 11:59

First off its for the UKTV.vbs script if you are using a different script then this may not apply.

There's only one CreateTextFile command used in that script so a quick Find will err find it for you. It will look something like

Code:

Set f=fs.CreateTextFile("UKTV.txt",true)

so replace the path with yours eg

Code:

Set f=fs.CreateTextFile("c:\Program files\Samurize\UKTV.txt",true)

There's an Edit Script command on the bottom left of the config prog. This fires up notepad (depending on your system and preferences may be something else)

daveccc · 3 Nov 2003 at 14:36

av i got to have a active script as well to get ip???, it dont show ppp ip thing it shows the bt broadband modem ??

Sleepy · 3 Nov 2003 at 14:41

There are two ways of getting an Ip address one is to use the WMI object the other is to use an active script called ExtendedProps - this needs your NIC number

To find that:

Add Meter|Add WMI|Change Settings|WMI Class = Win32_NetworkAdaptorConfiguration|Instances = WAN PPP/SLIP Interface|Properties = Index.

Note these are based on Samurize version 0.93f
