How can I run a VBScript from a button? I tried Run, RunQ ect,
Would I need to use wscript.exe, and if so, how would I pass the parameters to it to load the script I want.
Let's say the VBScript file is named test.vbs
It would look SOMETHING like this:
"RUN;wscript.exe,c:\test.vbs"
(I know the syntax is wrong... as this does not work :D )
Try this:
"RUN;wscript.exe|c:\test.vbs"
Jarrod Thanks! That did it, I tried a few variations, but never even concidered using a SINGLE Pipe (|), I did try the typical || thought.
Regardless, that works PERFECTLY, and NOW I can start doing some serious scripting! I am right at home with VBScript!
From the Skin Commands.txt:
;) Glad it workedCode:OBS: Anywhere you can run an application you can also specify it's arguments, by using a pipe (|) symbol.
Example: "RUN;C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE|c:\t.txt;NOTEPAD;NOTEPAD"
(The same can be used within the Launch INI files)
Hehe I missed the OBS: section entirely.
I just found the RUN section, and it makes NO mention of that.
Code:"RUN" - Dynamic Commands: set the code of a button to: "RUN;COMMAND|PARAMETER1|PARAMETER2" will
make it so clicking this button runs the specified command¶meters in the computer.
As an option you can run the command specifying the application name to embed in the current
screen (the application will be enbedded using the "A" settings in the skin file of screen:
Example: "RUN;C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE;NOTEPAD" (to run embedded)
"A,000,055,800,545,000,000,000" (.skin definition)
Optionally you can also set the text to be "spoken" when clicking the button:
Example "RUN;C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE;NOTEPAD;NOTEPAD"
it does say: "RUN;COMMAND|PARAMETER1|PARAMETER2" hehe, which is what you wanted, just didnt explain the parameter part ;)
either way, its working now! so who cares hehe
