Randy H, Robin Paardekam, Nate James,
I assume you want to run an executable at the server-side. As you might
know it's not possible to run exe's client-sided. Here's the code:
<%
Set server_shell = Server.CreateObject("wscript.shell")
server_shell.Run "%comspec% /c FILENAME.EXE"
%>
Good luck!

Sorry Robin. There are ways to run applications on the client side with
VBScript.
Here's an example that I came up with using the DOS Shell. it only
opens media player but the command line can be changed to open any
program
<html>
<body>
<Script language=vbscript>
Dim oShell
Set oShell = CreateObject ("WSCript.shell")
oShell.run ("cmd /K CD C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player &
wmplayer & exit"), 2
Set oShell = Nothing
</script>
</body>
</html>
Have Fun,
Randy
