Solved: vbScript File Owner

[draceplace]

How do I get the file owner in a vbscript? In DOS you see the file owner with "dir /Q " . I can't find the VB equivant!!

Wow!, can't believe this question is that hard...I'm looking for a "objFile.Size" like property "objFile.Owner" except that's not it. I've Googled and looked but I'm missing it somehow. surely someone here knows this!!

Thanks for reading my post!!

Public strFileOwner

Sub GetFileOwner(strFile)
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_LogicalFileSecuritySetting='" & strFile & "'}" _
& " WHERE AssocClass=Win32_LogicalFileOwner ResultRole=Owner")
For Each objItem in colItems
' Wscript.Echo objFile.Name & " " & objItem.AccountName
strFileOwner = objItem.AccountName
Next
End Sub

Found out you should check for nulls and empties before you execute. Short cuts and other junk in a directory will cause it to fail....Also so another that seems it would work:

Set objShell = CreateObject ("Shell.Application")
Set objFolder = objShell.Namespace ("C:\aScripts\origionals")
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim arrHeaders(13)
For i = 0 to 13
arrHeaders(i) = objFolder.GetDetailsOf (objFolder.Items, i)
Next
For Each strFileName in objFolder.Items
For i = 0 to 13
If i <> 9 then
Wscript.echo arrHeaders(i) _
& ": " & objFolder.GetDetailsOf (strFileName, i)
End If
Next
Wscript.Echo
Next
