[TheNewOne]

Hi forum. I need help with wscript.echo function. I have script, wich downloads certian file from web for updating my antivirus program. How could I include wscript.echo function in my script, that will display a certian message if error happen and other message if everything goes OK. Thx for any help.

It depends on how you determine that there is an error. Can you post your code so we can see exactly what you want to check?

thx for reply TomThumbKP There is my code:

Const OverwriteExisting = True
Set ObjShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objShell.Run("autodownload /

http://www.sophos.com/downloads/ide/ides.exe

/c:\ides\ides.exe"),1 ,True
objShell.Run ("start c:\ides\ides.exe"),1 ,True
objFSO.DeleteFile "c:\ides\ides.exe"
wscript.timeout = 1000
objFSO.MoveFile "c:\ides\*.*" , "c:\Program Files\Sophos SWEEP for NT\", OverwriteExisting
wscript.quit

I call autodownload aplication from this script, wich is made in VB.net.
Is it possible if any error acours in this script a certian message will be displayed??? Thx

Something like this ?
Const OverwriteExisting = True
Set ObjShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
rc = objShell.Run("autodownload /

http://www.sophos.com/downloads/ide/ides.exe

/c:\ides\ides.exe",1 ,True)
If rc <> 0 Then
WScript.Echo "Return code from autodownload=" & rc
WScript.Quit
End If
rc = objShell.Run("start c:\ides\ides.exe",1 ,True)
If rc <> 0 Then
WScript.Echo "Return code from ides=" & rc
WScript.Quit
End If
objFSO.DeleteFile "c:\ides\ides.exe"
wscript.timeout = 1000
objFSO.MoveFile "c:\ides\*.*" , "c:\Program Files\Sophos SWEEP for NT\", OverwriteExisting
wscript.quit

Hope This Helps, PH.
