Command.Run(cmd) execution step

[w33mhz]

I have an issue where I am running an executable from within a vbscript that does some more advanced processing of the file. What I would like to know is does the script wait until the execution is completed before going to the next step of the script (i.e. fso.DeleteFile objFile.Name).

For Each objFile in colFiles
	Set fso = CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
	GetFile = Split(fso.OpenTextFile (objFile.Name).ReadAll,vbCr)
	TempFile = objFile.Name & ".tmp"
	Set fw = fso.CreateTextFile (TempFile, ForWriting, True)
	i = 0
	For Each strLine in GetFile
		i = i + 1
		'Wscript.Echo i & " " & strLine
		If i > 8 Then
			'Wscript.Echo strLine
			fw.WriteLine strLine
		End if
	Next	
	fw.Close
	fso.MoveFile TempFile , "E:\temp\" & objFile.FileName & ".csv"
	Command.Run(cmd)
	fso.DeleteFile objFile.Name	
Next

And waht is Command.Run? Is that WScript.Shell?

I hope that helps.

@markdmac
It is a .Net C# console app

@PHV
Are those the additional parameters that I should use to make sure the script waits for the executable to finish?
