unc - the system cannot find the file specified

[bbxrider]

i have unc path that i successfully use in a vb program, to write to a file, basically this
Set ts = fs.OpenTextFile("\\highiv-9y5vwcb1\g\mydocs1\work\web sites\webSitesVb\webSitesVb1.log"

now i go to run the vb program (from a vbs file via open in windows explorer) which is in the same directory as above like this
WshShell.Run "\\highiv-9y5vwcb1\g\mydocs1\work\web sites\webSitesVb\webSitesVb1.exe"

and i get 'the system cannot find the file specified' 80070002 - you can see the directory path is identical and please believe me i have the correct name of the program
i'm running all this as an admin

if there's spaces in any of the directory names, you need to triple quote the unc path like this
WshShell.Run """\\highiv-9y5vwcb1\g\mydocs1\work\web sites\webSitesVb\webSitesVb1.exe"""
