Enumerates scheduled tasks created under Task Scheduler

[Toomany]

I need to list all task create in the Task Scheduler using vbscript.

I found on the MS Script Center the following script:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/os/tasks/ostkvb04.mspx

But as the description Say :

Enumerates all the scheduled tasks on a computer. Note: WMI can only
enumerate scheduled tasks created using the Win32_ScheduledJob class
or the At.exe utility. It cannot enumerate tasks created using the
Task Scheduler.

Anybody know a solution to list task create in the Task Scheduler ?

For Each oTaskItem In oTasksFolder.Items
sTaskName = oTaskItem.Name
If sTaskName <> "Add Scheduled Task" Then
WScript.Echo sTaskName
End If
Next

Thanks for your solution it's a godd idea but It will only shown the
Name first column "name" that in fact is the same name of a standard
folder.

There is a way to show all other column ? (status, last scheduled,
etc...) I had try to change .name into .statut but of course is not
recognise....

Any idea ?

You could parse the output from the command line tool SCHTASKS.EXE
on WinXP and Win2k3 Server.

If you are using Windows 2000 SCHTASKS.EXE won't be there, but you
can use JT.EXE that is available here:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/ResKit/win2000/

More about JT.EXE here:

temp file to parte it , but directly do it in memory ?

Hi

Well, you have the Exec method that was introduced with WSH 5.6 that
provides access to the StdIn/StdOut/StdErr streams, but I always
prefer to redirect to a temp file and then parse it, see an example
on this here:

Ok, Thanks, I did it with a templ file and that work fine.
Thanks for your help
