Vista Tutorial - wshell.run path building help

Hello

I'm trying to run a program, lets use mspaint as an example.

I've got mspaint in the folder path

c:\Program Files\Company Name\Version-001\mspaint.exe
c:\Program Files\Company Name\Version-002\mspaint.exe
c:\Program Files\Company Name\Version-003\mspaint.exe


When I run the script, I query the file mspaint.exe for the version number,
so I know which one to execute, and I assign that version ID to a variable
VersionString.
The returned string will be "Version-001" or "Version-002" or "Version-003"


My problem is when I do a wshShell.run I'm having problems with the white
spaces and adding the variable.

Mypath = """c:\Program Files\Company Name\""" & VersionString &
"\mspaint.exe", 3, False

wshshell.run Mypath, 3, False

I always get a error message that it can not find the specified file

Any Ideas?

Mypath = """c:\Program Files\Company Name\" & VersionString & _
"\mspaint.exe"""

You just needed to move the closing quotes for the command to the end of
'mspaint.exe' and remove the ',3, False' since that is part of your 'Run'
command and not part of the variable assignment.

Gavaskar schrieb:(1) The trailing '3, False' surely is a copy & paste artefact

(2) If you WScript.Echo Mypath it will look like

"c:\Program Files\Company Name\"Version-003\mspaint.exe

(3) So

Mypath = """c:\Program Files\Company Name\" & VersionString & "\mspaint.exe"""
