I'm using ASP to run a batch file. I need to know how to pass a variable to
this .bat file.

Is this possible? I'm using the following code but need to know how to pass
ASP variable.

set wshell = server.createobject("wscript.shell")
wshell.run "c:\file.bat"
set wshell = nothing

Any ideas? Or a work around?

Okay, I did use the below code from your web site. I put the variable 'x' in
the .bat file and it did not work.

I am a little slow to catch on... But I cannot quite see how to get a
variable through to this file.bat i.e. x=value1. How can the bat file
recognize the value of x?

set wshell = server.createobject("wscript.shell")
wshell.run "c:\file.bat"
set wshell = nothing

Can you briefly explain?

Thank you,
Cory
