Answer 1

You need to initialize objShell with

Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

before you can use its .Run method.

Also, VBScript doesn't expand variables inside strings, so you'll need to concatenate your argument to the rest of the command string:

objShell.Run "ArgumentTest2.vbs " & arg1

Note that you'll need to put tokens in double quotes if they contain spaces:

arg1 = "My Argument"
objShell.Run "ArgumentTest2.vbs """ & arg1 & """"
