Hello,

How would I create a pop up window to inform the user to log out?

I dont want the user to reboot the desktop (for that I can use the Post-Action Tab), but rather in the action script the last line would pop up a window to the user “log out”

Thanks for the help

You could use appendfile to create a VBScript using WshSHell.Popup() or MsgBox to open a pop-up window with the desired message.

Scherry,

Could you post an example of such code? I (and the other board members) would thank you for it.

Figured it out…

At the end of the action, Id call the vbs file that would produce the pop up.

This is the code (change the extension to vbs) to produce the pop up.

MsgBox “Log out for the changes to take effect.”, _

vbCritical, _

“Service Desk”

Thanks for all the help!!!
