Dim oShell, a

a = "C:\users\administrator\desktop\test.vbs"
oShell.run(a, 3, True)ASKER
not sure that will work. my main script is a VBS file not a WSF file and i am not trying to pull a function from another script but pass some variables onto the 2nd script via arguments and then execute the whole thing.
try:
Dim oShell, a
oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shel
a = "cscipt C:\users\administrator\des
oShell.run(a, 3, True)
Dim oShell, a
oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shel
a = "cscipt C:\users\administrator\des
oShell.run(a, 3, True)

i still get "cannot use parentheses when calling a sub" on the oShell.run(a, 3, True) line....
