I have a few hundred computers that haven't been defragged in years. I was
wondering if rather than doing it manually, if someone had a script where if
i just put all the computer names in a txt file, it would iterate through the
list and perform a "defrag c: -f" on them all from my workstation. The
workstations all have the same local administrator password, so the process
would be the same for each. I just dont know how to write scripts.

I know if i were going to do this manually from my computer I would run the
command below for each ComputerName

psexec \\ComputerName -u administrator -p MyPassword
c:\windows\system32\defrag c: -f

I just dont know how to make a script do that for each computer name in a
file, one computer per line.

@echo off
for /f "delims=" %%a in (workstation.txt) do call :process "%%a"
goto :eof

:process
echo %%a
psexec \\%%a -u administrator -p MyPassword
c:\windows\system32\defrag c: -f

Oops, I forgot to mention, that was batch code but this group is for
vbscript. For further assistance with batch code, please use a batch group.
