Running an exe file over a network share

Dim wsh
Set wsh = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell"
wsh.run "\\myserver\myshare\myexe.exe",,True
where the True means wait on completion then continue procesing the script, this is not 100% successfull as if the program starts a new thread and terminates the first one the wsh.run will presume it has completed and will carry on with the script processing.
Hope it helps

I get an error on line 3 char 1 saying can't find network after i plug my values in. any ideas??????????
Are you server you have the values set correctly, I just tested with one of mine and it worked.
Also do you have spaces in your share names?
does the error say "The network path was not found", if it does then either server name or share name is incorrect.
