[cmd] Execute cmd command from VBScript

How I can Execute a cmd command from VBScript (not by .bat file)

For example, I want to execute the following from VBScript:

cd /d C:dir_test\file_test 
sanity_check_env.bat arg1

This question is related to cmd vbscript

The answer is


Create WScript.Shell object and invoke Run() method on it.

Can also invoke oShell.Exec in order to be able to read STDIN/STDOUT/STDERR responses. Perfect for error checking which it seems you're doing with your sanity .BAT.


Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject("WSCript.shell")
oShell.run "cmd cd /d C:dir_test\file_test & sanity_check_env.bat arg1"
