Running dsquery in a vbscript using variables

[tazmaniandevil]

Hi

I am new to vbscript, and want my script to ask for a machine hostname, do a dsquery using this input, then display the result on screen.
From a command prompt I am using
"dsquery computer -name %hostname%" (replacing %hostname% with the machine hostname)
This returns the info I want.
My vbscript looks like this so far:

Dim hName, runline

hName = Inputbox("Enter Machine Host Name","Enter Name")
Set WShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
runline = ("dsquery computer -name " & hName)
WShell.Run  runline

This flashes the info I want on screen for a split second. How do I output this to screen?

Thanks in advance

Try this:

runline = "[red]cmd /k[/red] dsquery computer -name " & hName"
