Trapped in Shell !!

[suhaib]

Hi Guys

I was just trying my hands at WScript.Shell, and below is my program. But, it just doesn't seem to work. Could someone tell me why :(

Dim WSHShell
Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
cmmd = "<any DOS command>"
WSHShell.Run cmmd


Thanks

You are on the right way.
cmmd = "<any DOS command>"

Check your command. Test it in Start menu > Run .

If you want to run internal commands such as dir, You need to use as "cmd dir" for NT-base or "command dir" for Win9x
