Successmaker reports

[Chrisn]

Can anyone help me with Successmaker reporting. Everytime I run them, they insist on my printer using page not A4 and there seems to be no way of changing it. Also is there anyway of changing which printer they go to rather than having to change the default printer before logging in again :?

[Midget]

I use a script which will map the successmaker directory, map the successmaker printer manager printer as default, and then run SuccessMaker. Once SuccessMaker is closed the printer and sme dir are unmapped.

Did that solve the problem of it asking for letter size paper rather than A4?

[Midget]

since doing so i've never been approached with a prob reguarding it so i assume so

Cheers Midget, I know its a bit cheeky, but any chance of seeing a copy of your script, that I might be able to tailor to our site?

SME.bat

rem @echo off
c:
cd c:\windows\system32
NET USE m: \\WIN2KSRV\sme /persistent:no
START \\MyServer\SMlas
m:
cd ResultsManager\SuccessMaker\bin
LOGIN.EXE C:\ResultsManager\SuccessMaker\Launch.txt
WScript removeprinter.vbs
c:
cd c:\windows\system32
NET USE m: /DELETE

 

removeprinter.vbs

Option Explicit
DIM WSHNetwork, SMLas
Set WSHNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")

SMLas="\\MyServer\SMLas"

WshNetwork.RemovePrinterConnection SMLas, true, true

 

 

Completely uncommented because I'm lazy and didn't see the point on such a short script. Apparently there are ways to remove a printer in a bat script but calling a vbs works just as well.
