The second octet would be $mysubnetList[1] (array indexes start at 0).

I guess not. :-) ________________________________ John Marcum Sr. Desktop Architect Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP ________________________________ From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Trevor Sullivan Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 9:51 AM To: scripting@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:scripting@lists.myitforum.com> Subject: RE: [scripting] Simple KIX Question It's a function called "SubString" that's similar to the .NET String class' SubString method. In the case of .NET, there are two method overloads: PS C:\windows\system32> 'asdf'.Substring OverloadDefinitions ------------------- string Substring(int startIndex) string Substring(int startIndex, int length) In the first overload, it simply retrieves everything from startIndex to the end of the string. In the second overload, it retrieves everything from startIndex, for the number of characters specified in the length parameter. There isn't really any "math" going on here. Just simple string manipulation. Using SubString for the purposes of parsing an IP address is a really bad idea though, because the IP address is variable length. What if the octet wasn't three characters long? I'd recommend using the Split() method instead. '10.11.12.13'.Split('.')[3]; # Yields the last octet, whose value is 13 Cheers, Trevor Sullivan From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Marcum, John Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 9:44 AM To: Scripting List (scripting@lists.myITforum.com<mailto:scripting@lists.myITforum.com>) Subject: [scripting] Simple KIX Question Can someone explain to me what this is doing? Specifically how does "$mysubnet=SubStr($myaddress,5,3)" become "$mysubnet="200""? I assume it's doing some math there or something???? $myaddress=@ipaddress0 $mysubnet=SubStr($myaddress,5,3) ; Select ; ; Local Office Case $mysubnet="200" $officelocation="BHM" SetTime "\\SERVER02<file:///\\SERVER02>" Case $mysubnet="108" $officelocation="BHM" SetTime "\\SERVER02<file:///\\SERVER02>" ________________________________ John Marcum Sr. Desktop Architect Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP ________________________________ ________________________________ Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail is from a law firm and may be protected by the attorney-client or work product privileges.
