Hello,

I am having some trouble with a VBScript I am trying to write. So far what I have does what it is suppose to do. A fair bit of it is from the Microsoft Scripting guys.

It checks my Domain for all Windows 2003 servers and queries each server as to what windows updates have been applied. It writes all these to a CSV file. What I would like to do is specify a date and have it either only output the updates from that date or all updates since that date. The current script writes the date field from an object called objEntry.Date

the date format it outputs is
Code:
6/17/2008 1:25PM
I though maybe I could set the script to ignore anything but the correct date but I am not sure how seperate the text becuase I wont know the very minute an update was installed.

Code:
' Notify user the script has been started
Wscript.Echo "Click OK to begin Installed Update Check "

'create the filename unique for today's date
thisDay = day(date())
thisMonth = Month(date())
thisYear = year(date())
thisFileName = "updatelst " & thisYear & "-" & thisMonth & "-" & thisDay
PathName = outputUNCPath & thisFileName & ".txt"
Set objFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objNewFile = objFS.CreateTextFile(thisFilename & ".csv")
objNewFile.WriteLine "Installed Updates"
objNewFile.WriteLine " "
objNewFile.WriteLine " "

On Error Resume Next

Thanks for any assistance.
