Running external program/script

[mrobinson83]

Excuse my lack of knowledge, I've been landed with a program we use that can only run VBScript. I have a script in PHP that I've created that I'd like to run/call from VB.

Is it possible to call the PHP script from VBScript? If so examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

If you know how to launch the PHP script from the command line then have a look here:

This should run it:

Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WSCript.shell")
wshShell.Run("php your_script.php", 7, True)

>wshShell.Run("php your_script.php", 7, True)
Either
[tt]wshShell.Run "php your_script.php", 7, True[/tt]
or
[tt]call wshShell.Run("php your_script.php", 7, True)[/tt]
