I posted this over at the programming section with no luck, so I thought I'd try here - can any script gurus tell me why my VBS script doesn't work? It's supposed to find and echo out any .doc files created after a date specified - when I run it, a command window opens and I see a blinking cursor and thats it. ---- strDate = "20061001000000.000000+000" strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject _ ("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colFiles = objWMIService.ExecQuery _ ("Select * From CIM_DataFile Where CreationDate > '" & strDate & "'") For Each objFile in colFiles Wscript.Echo objFile.Name Next --- Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Dave

Oops - I posted the wrong script in the first message - this is the script I'm trying to get to work: --- strDate = "20061001000000.000000+000" strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject _ ("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colFiles = objWMIService.ExecQuery _ ("Select * From CIM_DataFile Where CreationDate > '" & strDate & "'" & _ " AND Extension = 'doc'") For Each objFile in colFiles Wscript.Echo objFile.Name Next --- Again, it is supposed to find .doc files created on or after the date specified in the script, and echo them out. All I get is a command window and a blinking cursor. Thanks, Dave
