Hello,
I'm trying to select a VBScripting tool for our 16 Location IT folks at Milgard Windows. We need a tool that will do scripts "run as" and "packaged" for security which I see your product does. What I need to know is:
1. Can your compiled .exe package be set to run invisibly to the end user...that is a requirement we have...we don't want the end-user to see ANYTHING when the .exe executes.
2. Can your .exe package run invisibly any additional .exe's we package within the main executable ? We would like the script to point to a packaged command-line .exe and would like the command window hidden. This is a "Nice to have" feature.
We'll be asking the same questions of the AdminScriptEditor folks today. We're trying to decide which is better suited for our needs.
Kindest Regards,
Jeffrey FerrisSenior WAN AdminMilgard Corp IT253-922-4335JeffreyFerris@milgard.com

Script Package .exe to run silent ?
If you package your script into a command line executable and run it as
yourexe.exe > nul
it should not emit any output. It really depends on what your script does and from where you call it.
If you package it as a Windows exe and your script does NOT use WScript.Echo or MgsBox (assuming it is VBScript) there should also be no output.
As for packaged exe's that is entirely under your control on how you execute those from within your script. As far as the package is concerned, it is just another data file.
If there is anything we can do to help, please let us know.

Script Package .exe to run silent ?
You can download an evaluation copy of PrimalScript and try it out for yourself. As Alex mentioned it really depends on your script. As long as it doesn't try to display anything, it can be completely hidden. Use the Wscript script engine and not CScript as the latter would likely open a CMD window which I think is what you are trying to avoid. Try it out and if you have other questions, we're happy to help you out.
