Hi,

I've written some .bat files.

now I want to use these in a vbscript, to query some of the results of the .bat files.

how do i call a .bat file from within the vbscript??

also, i know how to setup a .bat file to run at startup, can the same be down for a vbscript file?

set shell=createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.run "filename.bat"

Yes the same can be done for a vbscript

the shell can be used in two modes, exec = cmd or run = start>run
so it always depends what you are calling. i would use exec mode for a batch calling..
i think this example is a good one:

Notice that you can retrive the output of your batch same way that you do in cmd batch.bat >> log.log
is the line:objExecObject.StdOut.ReadLine()
this way you can generate a log or whatever you want.
cheers,
