How can you pass arguments to the executable?  Say I wanted to run 
something like:
p_r1.exe 1 "test"  ...
how are the args added?
VBScript to execute exe from asp:
<%
  Const ForReading = 1
  sDir = "c:\test\debug" 
  set oShell = Server.CreateObject("Shell.Application")
  set oFolder = oShell.NameSpace(sDir)  
  ' oFile is a FolderItem
  set oFile = oFolder.ParseName ("p_r1.exe")
  ' response.write "Testing" & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.Name & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.IsFileSystem & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.ModifyDate & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.Size & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.Type & "<BR>"
  ' response.write oFile.Path & "<BR>"
  oFile.InvokeVerb
%>
