Run one VBS script from another

[Stuart_C]

So the topic says it all, in order to minimise printer script maintenance I want to run one VB script from within another one.

 

So essentially I'm using this

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )		
Wshshell.run ("""c:\users\me\desktop\staff Printers.vbs""")

 

Which all works nicely.

 

However when I modify it to run on the netwotk to:

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )		
Wshshell.run ("""\\\Sysvol\\scripts\printer\staff Printers.vbs""")

it fails. As far as I can tell it's not running the script. Yet if I run \\\Sysvol\\scripts\printer\staff Printers.vbs manually on the PC it runs and does it's thing so I know it's not that the PC cant's see the file.

 

And now I'm confused and I don't know whats up?

I tend to set a variable DQ to chr(34) (Double Quotes) and then use that in the run command. Using """ caused me problems too!

 

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )	
DQ = chr(34)
Wshshell.run (DQ & "\\\Sysvol\\scripts\printer\staff Printers.vbs" & DQ)
