Thanks Mike. That makes sense. :-)
I guess what I am also trying to figure out - is how do I launch said scripts without having to manually open a command prompt and manually type in something like the following for each of the 8 scripts:
c:\runasspc\runasspc.exe /program:"c:\myVBscript.vbs /user:"AB03" /password:"passAB03" /quiet
I am not familiar with WShell, or creating BAT files, or even with launching the command prompt from within a script.
How would I write a simple script that would simply run the above line within the command prompt? So that when I double click on such a file, the above referenced _vbscript_ launches under the correct user? I am sure this is a simple thing to do, I just have no idea how, and wading through various manuals has not helped so far.
Of course in a worse case scenario, I could just manually type the above sort of thing into the command prompt for each script I want to launch, but that feels unnecessarily primitive.
