Vista - dos command

How can I insert a Dos command in VBS script.
I am trying to move:

from c:/temp/myvbs2.txt c:/temp/folder1

I am not familiar with VBS but it would be nice to know how to do it
using Visual Basic.

Also, I am also trying generate an email once the VBS script ends can
someone please provide some guidance on that.

thank you

script56.chm from the Microsoft site to get the basic stuff. There is no
need to shell out to the Command Prompt.

Have a look here for an example to execute a shell command from within VB
Script:

You could use this code to send a message:

schema = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/"
Set objEmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
With objEmail
.From = "roger@xxxxxx"
.To = james@xxxxxx
.Subject = "Test Mail"
.Textbody = "The quick brown fox " & Chr(10) & "jumps over the lazy dog"
.AddAttachment "d:\Testfile.txt"
With .Configuration.Fields
.Item (schema & "sendusing") = 2
.Item (schema & "smtpserver") = "mail.roger.com"
.Item (schema & "smtpserverport") = 25
.Item (schema & "smtpauthenticate") = cdoBasic
.Item (schema & "sendusername") = "roger@xxxxxx"
.Item (schema & "sendpassword") = "rogerspassword"
End With
.Configuration.Fields.Update
.Send
End With

is execute a native operating system command from a vbscript, correct? If
so, this is done with either the .run method or the .exec method of the
WshShell object:

..run: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/libr...ky(VS.85).aspx
..exec: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/libr...4a(VS.85).aspx
If your script is in vbscript, why execute an operating system command to do
something that can be done directly in vbscript using the .move method of
the file object or the .movefile method of the file system object.:

..move: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/libr...67(VS.85).aspx
..movefile: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/libr...a6(VS.85).aspx
There are a number of possibilities, but the choice depends somewhat on your
email infrastructure.
