Re^2: Windows Net Use

Parsing the output of WMIC looks even more difficult , cause its output is very different as compared to net use. So If u could tell me how to parse it or break it into what i need, it would be a great help..

The suggested code will return the information in CSV format. Save it to a file and use something like Text::CSV to read only the columns you want. Update: use something like `/output:c:\netuselist.csv` to save the file.	[reply] [d/l]

For the human eye it looks more gibberish, but for parsing it is less error prone. As marto already pointed out, the best solution is Text::CSV. Since CSV means "comma separated values", the second best is splitting on the commas. The first line that WMIC outputs, BTW, contains the field names.	[reply]
