.Bat that runs .VBS

Hello guys, I just needed a little bit of help. I was wondering if it was possible that a Batch file could start a .VBS file when I give the command to in the batch. I'm just experimenting with my knowledge of batch and seeing where I can improve on my coding skills.

Thanks in advance to all!

Here are two methods. The second one requires that the .VBS filespec is associated already.


Code: Select all

@echo off
cscript /nologo "c:\folder\filename.vbs"


Code: Select all

@echo off
start "" "c:\folder\filename.vbs"
