Passing an argument

Hello,

I was wondering how I could call a vbscript and pass an argument when I
call it.

I want to pass a filename to be used

thanks

You can pass an argument by running the script like so:

MyScript.vbs Argument1 Argument2 "Argument 3"

But perhaps you really want to know how to ***pick up***
a passed argument:

Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
wscript.echo "Number of parameters=" & objArgs.Count
wscript.echo "Param 1 = " & objArgs(0)
wscript.echo "Param 2 = " & objArgs(1)
etc.
