Hey all, I need someone to create a script for me to run in Windows, this is what it needs to do

1) Take a picture/screenshot of the Desktop (Prt Srcn), name it screen1.bmp and place it in the My Documents folder

2) Take a picture/screenshot of the My Documents folder, name it screen2.bmp and place it in the My Documents folder

3) Take a picture/screenshot of My Computer, name it screen3.bmp and place it in the My Documents folder

OPTIONAL BUT GREATLY DESIRED!

4) Bring up a screen of this information when run (that I can close anytime)
a) Computer name
b) Username logged into the PC
c) Windows OS Version
d) Current time


I NEED THIS ASAP!!

Err... That'd be pretty difficult to do with VBScript? It's do-able I'm pretty sure but a lot like work for what it looks like you're trying to accomplish?

Here's some free resources you might like to take a look at:

PC Activity Monitoring:
http://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/security/fwaccessmonitoring.html

Those are not quite what you want...

There is also SnagIt which can schedule screen shots. But they can only take images of windows (as print screen can only do as well) that are open. You'd have to have the windows open, screen shots taken, and then saved. Bugger coding that in script form...

Hello, I am actually willing to pay upto $40 for anyone that can do it

I prefer a batch file, but an exe or something would do to, thanks

I am thinking parts 1-3 can be done via a batch file and part 4 can be done as an exe and can be added to the batch file to run the exe, or something, suggestions are welcome!!

THANKS

I think this can be done in Visual Basic to create an exe to do all this, help please!

Yeah you can do it in VB but I don't see any way to open a screen and create a print screen in any scripting language that I'm familiar with. You could make it all an executable and then call it via batch but, to be honest, that's a lot like work and way too little pay for such a critter I suspect.

I think you won't find anyone to do that for so little money.

I can do this, but it will not be VBScript or a scripting language of any kind. It would be in C# and I would have to charge a lot more then $40. If your interested pm me.

I think the follow VB code segment can help you


Private Sub cmdCapture_Click()

hide the form
(as we dont want this in the screen shot)
Me.Visible = False
DoEvents

Clipboard.Clear

send a print screen button keypress event
and DoEvents to allow windows time to process
the event and capture the image to the clipboard
keybd_event vbKeySnapshot, 0, 0, 0
DoEvents

send a print screen button up event
keybd_event vbKeySnapshot, 0, &H2, 0
DoEvents

paste the clipboard contents into the picture box
ScreenCapture.Picture = Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap)
DoEvents

show the form and change the pointer to an
hourglass while the image is processed
Me.Visible = True
Me.Refresh

Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass

save the image to a file using the application path
SavePicture ScreenCapture.Picture, App.path & "\screen.bmp"

Partway there. Nice job BTW and that's about as far as I know to get with script. I don't think it can be done as a batch file. Anyhow, there's the next problem with pulling the folders up that they want opened. I'm interested in seeing superprogram's results actually. :D I haven't any reason for anything like this but I'm curious though it's mostly how they can do it with that budget?

Use the following code to open My Documents

Private Sub Cmd_Click()
Shell "explorer.exe C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents", vbMaximizedFocus
End Sub
