I should have been more thorough in my explanation. &nbsp;However, your suggestion would work if it weren't for the file issues so I give you the points.

Hi all,<br />
<br />
It was recommended I visit this TA so here goes.<br />
<br />
I've built a simple zip program in java (then I jar'd it) that does exactly what I want it to do from the windows command line editor. &nbsp;I need this program to run on the web server based on an action from my users. &nbsp;I'm looking at passing my command line arguments to a vbscript file and then launching the jar file. &nbsp;I havn't tested this yet so I guess what I'm doing here is asking if I'm headed down the right road.<br />
<br />
My web server is IIS 5.0 on a WinXP box. &nbsp;My JDK is 1.4.2_04. &nbsp;My vbscript engine is 5.0.<br />
<br />
Any information is appreciated. &nbsp;I'm kinda restricted on installing any third party tools on to the web server (other than mine).<br />
<br />
Thanks

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
