Previously I had asked for help with Win32::LookupAccountSID().
Specifically, the call requires that the SID be in a binary format.
One helpful user pointed me to this:
http://code.activestate.com/lists/perl-win32-users/26301/
All of that works, except the article's author is first getting the binary
SID from the Win32::LookupAccountName() call, which is a chicken and egg
thing.
I need to know how to convert a SID like this:
'{S-1-5-21-1406052347-744958519-1677701-1424}'
...into its equivalent binary form for use in the
Win32::LookupAccountSID() call. Does anyone out there know how to do this?

RE: Template Toolkit on Windows 7
You said when ttree tries to create his .ttreerc file the OS will not let him do so. As Leo was pointing out, this is probably a problem with authority. Running the Perl script as an administrator would probably help, but that's not a fix. The issue is probably that you don't have create authority to the folder where the script is creating the file. To fix this, you need to have administrator access to the PC where the script is running. Assuming you do, you can use cacls (from the command line) to grant yourself create authority to the folder (make sure you run cmd as administrator). Assuming you have administrator access, you can also use the graphical interface to do this (easier for beginners). Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the folder. Right-click the folder and select Properties, then select the Security tab. Since you probably need administrator authority to make changes to this folder, click Continue. Click Add, type in your Windows user name and click Check Names. Assuming you entered the correct user name, the fully qualified name should be returned (e.g. COMPUTER\USERNAME). Click OK. Your user name should now appear in the list of authorized users. With your name highlighted, check off Full control in the Allow column. Click OK, then OK again and you should be back to Windows Explorer. Your script should now be able to create the file.

RE: Parsing a PDF with empty fields
Disclaimer: I'm using Acrobat 10 and Office 2010, so YMMV. I opened the PDF in Acrobat and selected File, Save As, then chose Tables in Excel Spreadsheet (*.xml). I opened the resulting xml in Excel, and the data was properly lined up in columns. There were only 50 entries per sheet (one PDF page per sheet), but there were only 5 sheets, and the fifth sheet had the last page of the PDF. So it was missing most of the data from the PDF. I was able to highlight the table in Acrobat, right click in one of the highlighted fields, and select Open Table in Spreadsheet. This opened Excel automatically with the table data properly populated. I was then able to export the table as a CSV, which gives you the data in a format you can use. However, this only worked one page at a time, but it worked for every page in the PDF. This, therefore, is your best bet. This will be tedious for all 25 pages in the PDF, especially considering you have to do this more than once. I recommend looking into AutoIt for automating the conversion to CSV. AutoIt is my favorite automation tool, and it's free. Good luck! -Original Message- From: perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com [mailto:perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com] On Behalf Of Ted Schuerzinger Sent: Wednesday, April 13, 2011 4:53 PM To: Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com Subject: Parsing a PDF with empty fields From time to time I need to parse the rankings PDF files from the Women's Tennis Association. I would do it by copying all the text, pasting it into a text file, and then using a Perl script to take each line, splitting it by spaces into an array, and then manipulating those arrays as need be. (Some tennis players have multiple spaces in their names, such as the Spanish players who use their matronymics, but reversing the array gets around that fairly easily.) That meant getting rid of fields I don't need (eg. a player's nationality), putting in tabs, and printing the modified list to a different text file so that I could use a spreadsheet to open the modified PDF as a tab-delimited spreadsheet. However, the WTA has changed its PDFs. There used to be numerical fields where some of the values would be a 0. The WTA has repaced these 0's with *empty fields*. Consider a player who has values for every field: 1 (1) WOZNIACKI, CAROLINE DEN 9930 23 470 200 280 200 The various fields are in order, This week's ranking, Last week's ranking, Name, Nationality, Total ranking points, Events played, Points earned last week, Points coming off the rankings for next week, Points earned in 16th-best result, and Points earned in 17th-best result. Now it's fairly obvious that not everybody plays every week, so there are going to be players with 0's in either the points earned last week field or the points coming off the rankings (the rankings are a rolling 52-week system, so this field is the number of points the player earned in the same calendar week last year). Also, there are players who haven't played 16 events and so have a 0 for the 16th or 17th result. In the past, such fields would have an actual 0, which makes parsing the PDF easy. Now, those are blank fields. In a PDF file, it's visually obvious which fields are empty: http://www.wtatennis.com/SEWTATour-Archive/Rankings_Stats/Singles_Numeric.p df However, copying to text gets rid of these empty fields, making the old Perl script I used now useless. If you download the ~140KB PDF, you'll see that #3 Zvonareva and #11 Peer each have one field (and they're different for the two players) that would have a 0, but when copied to a text file, you get these results: 3 (3) ZVONAREVA, VERA RUS 7815 20 320 125 60 11 (11) PEER, SHAHAR ISR 3030 22 60 60 60 You can't tell which field would have had the 0. (And if you look far enough down the rankings, wait until you get to #172 Sloane Stephens, who has exactly 16 events, which means she's got a 0 for the 17th tournament, but this particular week has an event added but none coming off the rankings.) Any good idea on how to get around this? I presume there's a PDF-parsing module, but I don't do all that much Perl programming, limiting myself to text parsing, regexes and a bit more, so I'm not very good with modules. (Many years ago, the WTA rankings used to be fixed-with text files.

RE: TaskScheduler and Win32::OLE
There is no OLE object to work with tasks created by the Scheduled Tasks
Wizard (the Win32_ScheduledJob object in WMI only works with tasks scheduled
with AT). You can, however, use the schtasks command to produce a list of
all scheduled tasks and then walk that list. schtasks can produce the output
in several formats, xml probably being the most useful for your purposes.

Subject: TaskScheduler and Win32::OLE
I'm trying to use Win32::OLE to access the TaskScheduler [on Win2K3]. I
would like to get all the configured tasks, finding any that contain a
pattern in the task name and then display all/any details I can about those
tasks.
I'm using OleView.exe to look at the SCHEDULERLib (Scheduler 1.0 Type
Library).
Schedule:
Scheduler.EnumTask:
CLSSID: {056ADD67-DDB0-47BE-9F7D-DC652206F766}
TypeLib: {C83F84A8-241A-4837-A6BA-1C5131141743}
Library: Win32::TieRegistry=HASH(0x139e35c)
1.0\ = Scheduler 1.0 Type Library
Scheduler.Schedule:
CLSSID: {4EF17F94-3975-4ACF-B228-29485BDE5860}
TypeLib: {C83F84A8-241A-4837-A6BA-1C5131141743}
Library: Win32::TieRegistry=HASH(0x13bb3cc)
1.0\ = Scheduler 1.0 Type Library
Scheduler.Task:
CLSSID: {3AEC7772-2766-4C67-8487-4189C55DDE4E}
TypeLib: {C83F84A8-241A-4837-A6BA-1C5131141743}
Library: Win32::TieRegistry=HASH(0x13bb45c)
1.0\ = Scheduler 1.0 Type Library
Scheduler.Trigger:
CLSSID: {D8D9EEBC-0640-47AC-84FF-97C3A6B2FC79}
TypeLib: {C83F84A8-241A-4837-A6BA-1C5131141743}
Library: Win32::TieRegistry=HASH(0xdc6ff4)
1.0\ = Scheduler 1.0 Type Library
I have to say I'm quite lost and have reviewed Jan Dubois' doco on
Win32::OLE but just haven't been able to understand it well enough.
use Win32::OLE qw(in);
$obj = Win32::OLE-new(Scheduler.Schedule)
or die Error OLE:.Win32::OLE-LastError();
$obj-Reset;
$obj-Activate;
foreach $tsk (in $obj-Invoke( 'EnumAllTask')) {
# print $tsk-Name, \n; # this generates an error
my %NAMES;
my @props = map { $_-{Name} } ( in $tsk-{Properties_} );
print Props = , join( , , @props), \n;
}
# no output is produced

RE: execute script
Check out smbpasswd. And by the way, google is your friend. Try that first before looking for help on a mailing list. -Original Message- From: perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com [mailto:perl- win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com] On Behalf Of bigthepaco Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2010 11:21 AM To: perl-win32-users@listserv.ActiveState.com Subject: execute script Hi, I need your help. I must develop a script to change periodically all local administrator passwords of about 1000 clients of my LAN (NT domain). I'd like to do it with Perl. I'd like to develop with a Linux box, but it's not possible ok, I can do it on Windows. Can I do it on Linux box? Is this a problem? Have you some script (examples) similar to this? Is a problem if I don't know old passwords? Of course I'm LAN administrator and then I know domain password admin.

RE: Determining if a file is open
An easier solution is to try to open the file exclusively. If it fails, one of the errors will be unable to obtain the exclusive lock (because the file is open already).

Almost all properties of windows objects can be found in some WMI class. You can also connect to remote machines and run WQL queries against those machines, so it is not just for local machines. If needed, I'll see if I can provide an example when I get off work today. Hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction.

I want to look at a file that is being generated by another program (sometimes a very large file) and determine when it is finally closed. I see the file attributes for things like size, owner, type etc. but nothing to really determine it's state.
