Running vbscript from batch file

Question

I just need to write a simple batch file just to run a vbscript  Both the vbscript and the batch file are in the same folder and is in the SysWOW64 directory as the vbscript can only be execute in that directory  Currently my batch file is as follows    echo off  WINDIR  SysWOW64 cmd exe cscript necdaily vbs   But the vbscript wasn t executed and just the command prompt is open  Can anyone tell me how can i execute the vbscript when i run this batch file

You can use   dp0 to get the path of the currently running batch file   Edited to change directory to the VBS location before running  If you want the VBS to synchronously run in the same window  then   echo off pushd   dp0 cscript necdaily vbs   If you want the VBS to synchronously run in a new window  then   echo off pushd   dp0 start  wait    cmd  c cscript necdaily vbs   If you want the VBS to asynchronously run in the same window  then   echo off pushd   dp0 start  b    cscript necdaily vbs   If you want the VBS to asynchronously run in a new window  then   echo off pushd   dp0 start    cmd  c cscript necdaily vbs

Batch files are processed row by row and terminate whenever you call an executable directly  - To make the batch file wait for the process to terminate and continue  put call in front of it  - To make the batch file continue without waiting  put start    in front of it   I recommend using this single line script to accomplish your goal       call cscript    dp0necdaily vbs     because this is a single line  you can use   instead of  echo off   If you believe your script can only be called from the SysWOW64 versions of cmd exe  you might try        WINDIR  SysWOW64 cmd exe  c call cscript    dp0necdaily vbs    If you need the window to remain  you can replace  c with  k
