symptom
Import hangs when selecting to import resources for a Windows NT domain.

cause
The Reporting tool imports all computer properties instead of only the required properties.

fix

This is corrected in DRA 7.5. To resolve this issue upgrade to the latest version of DRA.

The following workaround will only import the required properties of the computer object:

1. Make a backup copy of OaRept.mdb.
2. Open OaRept.mdb using the full version of Microsoft Access.
3. Open the Import module.
4. Go to the ImportEaComputers() procedure.
5. Replace this line (around line 4044):
   
   
   gVarSetIn.put "AllProperties", True
   
   
   with these lines:
   
   
   gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsType", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.description", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsTypeDescription", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsServicePackNum", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsMajorVersion", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsMinorVersion", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsAvailable", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsClass", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsName", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsNameValue", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsSchema", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsIsContainer", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsAllowPreW2k", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.operatingSystem", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.pwdLastSet", ""
gVarSetIn.Put "Properties.$McsCanonicalName", ""
   
   
   
6. Save changes to the Import module.
7. Close OaRept.mdb.
