running vbscript from VB.NET

Hi,

I want to run some vbscripts from a VB.NET application. Anybody knows how to
do this?

Thanks,

Pieter

Hi Pieter,

In a webform or in a windowform?

Hi Cor,

It's in a windowform :-)

Hi Pieter,

This is the only one I could find direct,

It uses the webbrowser

It was the first piece of code I got from Herfried and I find it still
greath.

(Do not think there was much after that)

:-))

AxWebBrowser.Navigate("about:<html><body
onload=javascript:window.external.addFavorite('" + textbox1.Text +
"')></body></html>")
///

You need to host the VBScript within something; the simplest thing to do is
to put a reference the Microsoft Script Control into your windowform, then
run the script within the control.

You have 2 options:

1. Run vbscript as standalone process - VB.Net has Shell() function. Execute

cscript.exe "C:\Path\FileName.vbs"

2. Host vbscript inside your application - the easest way is to use
Microsoft Script Control.

As another option you may let users write VB.Net code. In your application
you will need to compile and run it.
