Using jscript for logon script

[Andrew]

I have written a jscript that is executed when the user logs into the
network. Among other things, I want the script to be able to run an
executable which is stored on the network. Can anyone tell me the proper
syntax for this? I think the line, WshShell.Run, is to be used but unsure
of how it would be written.

Thank You

I used x.Run(\\\\server\\share\\filename);

This works fine, however, I also need to pass some parameters encased in
double quotes. The above statement doesn't allow more than the two already
used. This is the statement I am trying to call accross the network:

\\server\share\filename "\\server\share\filename -
s -f1\\server\share\filename -f2\c:filename"

When I use the above in a .bat file it works great. The problem is finding
the right syntax to do the same thing in a .js file

Any help would be appreciated...sorry about double posting. I didn't
realize there was this group at first.

You can just use single quotes to enclose a string literal that includes
double quotes as in:

'this thing "that thing"'

So that would mean (all on one line)...

x.Run('\\\\server\\share\\filename
"\\\\server\\share\\filename -s -f1\\\\server\\share\\filename -f2
c:filename"');
