Need VB script for telnet application
I am trying to telnet into a Unix server from within an Excel application
using VBA. I can create a DOS batch file that calls telnet, but I can't get any of the other commands to work such as logging on, password, Unix commands, etc. I'm wondering if I can create a VB script to do this. Does anyone have a potential solution? -- -- Regards, John M. Lembo Phone: (585) 594-1753 Fax: (585) 594-4028 Email: |

Need VB script for telnet application
John, there is a function called SendKeys() that you can look into. You need
to know pids and such, which means shelling everything out of Excel. I've never managed to get it working correctly, but that doesn't mean much... There should be examples of it's use out there somewhere. Jeff "John M. Lembo" wrote in message ... I am trying to telnet into a Unix server from within an Excel application using VBA.
