How do I run (shell) an executable from VB Script?

[dvst8]

this is mark's code:

Option Explicit

Public Function RunExe(ByVal Filename As String) As Long
On Error Resume Next

Shell Filename

'return the error if any
RunExe = Err.Number

End Function

compile this as a dll, register is, and then call it with the file you want to run from asp.
