Files that you reference in a .wsf file can't contain XML elements, so you can't execute a .wsf file from another .wsf file. You can execute only language files, such as .vbs files or .js files.

Bill Stewart's article "WSH, Part 2: .wsf Files" (http://www.windowsitpro.com/Articles/ArticleID/48692/48692.html) contains a lot of helpful information about .wsf files.

Hi Renuka,

Karen is correct in that you can't include one wsf file within another using the <script> element's src attribute. However, you can run one WSH script from another using the WshShell object's Run method. I'm not sure which one of these you had in mind.

HTH,

Bill
