Installing Printers via VB and ASP

[wmac222]

I have developed a no-brainer web page that my users can select the printer they want installed and whether or not it will be their default printer. When they click the 'Install Printer' button, I would like the following VB script to be executed, any suggestions on how I can run this script from the 'called' <form action=xxx.asp method=post> ASP page?

*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!

Dim objNetwork, bnDefaultPrinter

bnDefaultPrinter = Request.Form ("DefaultPrinter")

Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network")

objNetwork.RemovePrinterConnection "\\[server name]\[printer name]"
objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\[server name]\[printer name]"

If bnDefaultPrinter = 0 Then
objNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter "\\[server name]\[printer name]"
End if

!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*

Thanks for the assist!

well when they submit the form after clicking the submit button, just fire off that piece of code. Will that not work?

No, that would be too easy. I get following message:

..> WSHNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive error '800708ca'

..> This network connection does not exist.

Any suggestions??

Thanks for the assist.

hey i just googled this

WSHNetwork.RemoveNetworkDrive error '800708ca'

and it came back with alot of hits, i was searching through some of them and it appears that other people have had this problem as well. WHile i did not read any that had a working solution, im sure if you look long enough you will find one that does.

Give it a shot.
