I'm trying to write a vbs to run vncviewer on a relative path. The following
code works, except when the path has spaces:

Dim LaunchDir, FSO, WSHShell
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
LaunchDir = FSO.GetFolder(".")

wSHShell.Run LaunchDir & "\vncviewer.exe -notoolbar -autoscaling
myhost.dyndns.org"

Where's the error?
Any help would be appreciated.

Path with spaces should be in quotes. So, modify Your last code row:

wSHShell.Run """" & LaunchDir & "\vncviewer.exe" & """" & " -notoolbar
-autoscaling myhost.dyndns.org"

Something like this, if I wasn't mistaken...

Put quotes around the paths. e.g. "c:\path\...\...\" Then it sees the
entire path, not just part of it.
