I have a custom wizard call Ad-hoc Group Wizard. This wizard opens a box where you paste in a list of computer names. It then displays the computers with all the properties in the console. I have pasted in the code.
My question is: does anyone have a similar wizard or know how to modify this wizard to create a list of computers based on the “last logged on user”?

I suppose you want to use the “User Name” property? That’s probably the best approximation of the “last logged on user”, though maybe there’s something better. At any rate, if you want to use a different property, you can follow the same pattern. The relevance changes to be this:
‘ids of bes computers whose (exists values whose (it as lowercase = "’+ chomp(names[i].toLowerCase()) + ‘") of result from ( bes property whose ( name of it = “User Name” ) ) of it )’;
And the new wizard is this:

Is there a way to speed this up? It is quite slow. It is fast when just using the computer name.

I’m sorry, since we’re not using the same deployment, I’m not sure why it’s slow on your deployment. If I were in your position, I would try looking at it in the “Presentation Debugger” in the console to mess around with the relevance to try to guess at what’s slow.
