Parentheses not allowed?

[Dorff]

I am executing a simple VBScript from my web site. The script is being executed but I get this error.

"Cannot use parentheses when calling a sub."

This is the code for the script.

Set WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell&quot
WshShell.Run ("excel","return.csv&quot

Any ideas? Ryan

remove the parenthesis

WshShell.Run "excel","return.csv"

Try not using parantheses when calling your sub! ie

WshShell.Run "excel","return.csv"

Thanks folks.....that helped, but wasn't a fix. Now I get a WScript object required error message. Ryan

try this
dim iRet
Set WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell&quot
iRet = WshShell.Run ("excel","return.csv&quot

Is the WScript object installed on your webserver? Brett Birkett B.Comp

Ran some other WSH scripts and none worked. That solves my problem. Thanks for the help everyone.
