To clarify, at the current time I simply double click on a _vbscript_ file, when I am logged in as the main user, and it launches my Amibroker optimizations as that user.
But now, logged in as main user, I want to instead use RunAsSPC to launch the script, and pass it an alternate User/Pass - but I want to do this by double clicking on yet another script (a launch script for this RunAsSPC command).
That is what I am having difficulty trying to figure out. Again, I am sure this is as basic as it gets, as far as scripting or BAT files are concerned. I just have minimal experience in those regards.
