Hello,

I have the following code on a login script to read the logon server name:
Set WSHShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Set WSHProcess = WSHShell.Environment("Process")
LogonServer = WSHProcess("LogonServer")

But now I am not sure how to parse the 'Logonserver' name to and skip ahead
in the script if the first 5 letters of the name are 'abcde'

so what I need is something like:

If logonserver name starts with 'abcde' then go to end
Wscript.echo " some data"
End

Any help will be appreciated

Should look like this:

LogonServer = UCase(Trim(LogonServer))
If Mid(LogonServer,1,5) <> "ABCDE" then
Wscript.echo " some data"
Else
End If

Since the logonserver variable always shows the name prefixed with "\\",
this might be marginally simpler:

    LogonServer = UCase(Trim(LogonServer))
    If Left(LogonServer,7) <> "\\ABCDE" then
        Wscript.echo " some data"
    End If
