calling RPG program with VBScript

[David Abramowitz]

I have been using a combination of SHELL, and the rmtcmd.exe executable that comes with iseries access. This works great, but execututes programs asynchronously. You're never quite sure when the program ends. I know that there are more straightforward methods using OLE, but I am not familiar with them. Dave

I'm looking for any examples of a VBScript program calling an RPG Program. I want to pass two parameters and have the RPG program return six parameters. Any working examples or links to a helpful website would be great. Diane

Dave & Chris, Thanks for your thoughts. We have been working with the shell and rmtcmd, but having problems with it. I'm interested in OLE methods and will check out the articles that Chris has pointed out. Again, thanks for the direction on this. Diane
