Hi. I dont have prior knowledge to vbs and kinda new to SAS EG. I am only using .vbs produced by sas eg.
So I want to run a .vbs file with an argument, something like: csript C:\\…\sample.vbs arg1

How could I add or store it on the ready made .vbs? And is there a way I could also call arg1 on my sas program?

Any help would be great. Thanks

Since you are new to both, I suggest never using vbs. It is way out of date and will cause security issues. It is slated to be removed by MS and has been deprecated a long time ago: VBScript - Wikipedia

 

That said, what are you trying to do? There are other ways to handle what vbs did.
