如何在HTA文件中使用VBScript打开应用程序

Question

I am having trouble with getting the HTML Application ( MeowcatSoftware Launcher Demo.HTA on GitHub ) to open a target application, for example, MultiToolv0.2.exe. Is there a way to open the target applications such as the MultiTool using VBScript besides using Wscript.shell objects, which has been causing most of my problems?

I have tried the following, which didn't work:

Sub RunProgram  
    Set objShell = CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”)  
    objShell.Run “notepad.exe c:\script\test.txt”  
End Sub  

( From 'Hey, Scripting Guy" Blog Post )

I played around a little with it but couldn't figure out how to achieve my goal. The blog post also mentioned using a Windows Shell object instead of Wscript.shell, but it looks like from the example that the Windows Shell object method was for opening a file using another program, and I just want it to simply open the target application. How do I open a program using VBScript within an HTA Application?

Answer 1

In vbscript this should work : You should using quote ( " ) not like you posted in your question ( “ ) and ( ” )

Call RunProgram()

Sub RunProgram  
    Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")  
    objShell.Run "notepad.exe c:\script\test.txt"  
End Sub
