Easier way to run programs
-
Currently I use vbscript to call/run apps and am wondering about an easier to do this. When I first started programming I was using a script that called a batch which then called an app. The script would hide the cmd prompt window but it was a huge hassel ._._._._._.-.-.-.-.-._._._._._.-.-.-.-.-._._._._._.-.-.-.-.- Spimoles.NET

Why wouldn't you launch the app directly? There's nothing in a batch file that you couldn't do in script. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome

Everytime I had tried launching directly it would mess up. So I made a batch that would launch the app and used a script to launch the batch. Yes I know, it didnt have to be that complicated but that was a while back and it was a personal program. ._._._._._.-.-.-.-.-._._._._._.-.-.-.-.-._._._._._.-.-.-.-.- Spimoles.NET

It's not different than launching a batch file. What does the code look like when you try and launch the app? RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome
