I am having the darndest time in trying to run Java.exe with all of the needed parameters. I have put quotes between it seems like everything at one time or another, but haven't found the right combination. This is taken from a shortcut...I am not familiar with the Java command, so that isn't helping me any :). Could look at what I have and offer any suggestions, please?

Thanks!

Dim appName,RegObj

Set RegObj = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
appName = "java.exe -Derrors com.uytame.eIEHus.eIIIEHus -ms16777216 -mx268435456"

RegObj.Run appName, 1, False

Hi jtibb,

what happens, if you run the command (without the ") from a command line?

That's a good question...It flashes a black DOS window up and it disappears. It's supposed to start an application. I don't know how well it would run from a VBS, if it doesn't run from Windows Run...although, it runs from the Shortcut OK...Is there a way just to "run" a shortcut that you know of? Thank You!!!

Hi jtibb,

what happens, if you do something like

"C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\eh\Desktop\startjavaapp.lnk"

(with ") on the command line? If it works, try appName = "<.lnk full filespec>".

Is there a directory (Ausf�hren in|Execute in (?)) specified in the shortcut?
