| | Determine if script was run from command prompt How can I determine in my VBScipt whether the script was run from the command prompt or from double clicking in Windows Explorer? I want to pause the script at the end if it was run from the command prompt but Wscript.StdIn.ReadLine errors if it the script is not run as with the console. |

In general, WScript.exe is the GUI host and cscript.exe is the console host. These names could be changed, but 99.44% of the time this should be accurate. Tom Lavedas ------------------- |
