I'm working on a vbscript, which will be added to our logon script. The
script will query our SQL server and generate a signature file and save it
to
a folder under user's profile. For example, the file is called
company.htm
and will be saved at c:\documents and settings\<userid>\application
data\microsoft\signatures. How can I define the path in the script so the
file will be saved properly under each profile. Some computers are shared
by
roaming users. I'm sure it's very easy but I'm not good at vbscript so
please help.

thanks.

You can extract an environmental variable like so:
Set objWshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WScript.Echo "UserProfile=" &
objWshShell.Environment("PROCESS")("UserProfile")
