You need a shell to use echo (same as for device rerouting, by the
way):
Dim aTests : aTests = Array( _
"echo ThisWontWork" _
, "%comspec% /c echo ThisWillWork" _
)
Dim oShell : Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
Dim sCmd, vRet
For Each sCmd In aTests
WScript.Echo "sCmd: " + sCmd
On Error Resume Next
vRet = oShell.Run( sCmd, SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE, True )
If 0 <> Err.Number Then
WScript.Echo "ERR: " & Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
End If
On Error GoTo 0
WScript.Echo "vRet: " & vRet
WScript.Echo "------------------------------"
Next
