Could someone tell me if the syntax for this line is correct?

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Return = WshShell.Run("psexec.exe \\" & strServer & _
  & " -u domain\userid -p password regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\hhctrl.ocx", 4, true)

The second parameter (4) should leave the active window active, but it launches a new windows and never closes.

There is no indication that it is still running or that it failed.

Thanks

In looking at my post I typed an extra "&" on the continuing second line, which I don't have in my script.

Thanks 

Hi operez,

I have a couple of comments on the snippet of script code that you posted:

First, it seems like it's your intention to register the file hhctrl.ocx on a remote computer. Is this correct? If so, keep in mind that psexec executes the command as if you were sitting at the other computer's console; that is, the hhctrl.ocx path and file name must exist on the remote system, in that exact location.

Second, if you run regsvr32.exe without /s, it executes and displays a message box ("hhctrl.ocx was registered successfully"). I think you probably want the /s option after the regsvr32.exe command.

Let me know if this helps you get done what you need.

Thanks for your response Bill, I have been busy fighting other fires.

The hhctrl.ocx path is the same as if I was logged into the console of the remote server and actually runs logged into the remote server, but not from the script, using psexec.  The /s I figured out after a good nights sleep, but again thanks for your response.

Hi operez,

If I understand your response, your problem is resolved. If not, feel free to post back here.

Regards,

Bill
