kick start a .BAT file from ASP

[Guest_imported]

hello,
I use ASP in IIS for my intranet program.
On the same computer, in P:/ I have a .bat file that I want it to be run when user do something on the webpage.
so it the following what I have to do?
-------------------------------------------
Set wsh = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell&quot
wsh.run "D:\ASP\QC\SOURCE\PDM\pdm_run\PartsInf.bat", 0, true
Set wsh = Nothing
--------------------------------------------
when I run that webpage it didn't complain anything, yet it didn't seems have execute my PartsInf.bat either.
if anyone know what have been missing from the code? it WScript.Shell is simply not the way for it?

It contains a link to aspexec.(free component) If you download it take a look at the readme. I found that the info contained within helps even if you dont use the component.
