Run VBScript and Batch from hta page - issue with working directory
Thread Starter
New Member Hi

Join Date: Jan 2022 I have a hta page from where I'd like to run some scripts in the folder "files".

It is workind for simple scripts (see Button 1) but not for more complexe scripts (Button 2, 3, 4). It says
path not found. If I run the complexe scripts in their folder it's working. I guess the reason is because the
working directory is not defined. How can I do that?

Code:
<head><title>testpage</title></head>
<Script language="VBScript">Set Wss=CreateObject("WScript.Shell")</script>

<body><table><tr><td align="center">
<br><br>1. Signatur erstellen (Sprachen waehlen):<br>
<form name="Form1">
<input type="Button" name="Button1" value="Deutsch">
<input type="Button" name="Button2" value="Franzoesisch">
<input type="Button" name="Button3" value="Italienisch">
<input type="Button" name="Button4" value="Englisch">

<SCRIPT FOR="Button1" EVENT="onClick" LANGUAGE="VBScript">


Wss.Run("files\test.vbs")
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT FOR="Button2" EVENT="onClick" LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Wss.Run("files\AutoSignature_French.vbs")
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT FOR="Button3" EVENT="onClick" LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Wss.Run("files\AutoSignature_Italian.vbs")
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT FOR="Button4" EVENT="onClick" LANGUAGE="VBScript">
Wss.Run("files\AutoSignature_English.vbs")
</SCRIPT>
</form>
</td></tr></table></body>

Thank you.

Code:
Wss.Run("D:\MainDir\SubDir\files\AutoSignature_English.vbs")

Or, just hard-code them, at least to test.

New Member Thank you. I hard-coded the paths in the more complex scripts for now. That's working.
