Using VB script to call a VB application

[tcash]

I'm using VB Script-How do I call an existing VB application using VB script? I want the user to press a button and then have my existing VB application start as a result. (Shell doesn't work in VB script)

Thanks,

Hi there,

Well, it is not simple. Browsers, for security reasons wont let you start exe files on client computers.
If you are coding your VB script server side, then you cannot open applications on client computers, hence you are coding towards the server, and your VB-script would try to open it from the server.

What is possible is to create an ActiveX component that calls the application on the client. For this to work you will need to verysign your component.
