batch file - How to call Run() with parameters

Question

I've got this working line of code in Windows Batch

start "" /wait /i "C:Program FilesSandboxieStart.exe" /box:NetBeans /wait "C:Program FilesNetBeans 7.3in
etbeans64.exe"

I would like to run it via VBScript. But I don't know how to pass the path in parameter which has a space inside.

I came up with something like this:

Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
objShell.Run("C:Program FilesSandboxieStart.exe" /box:NetBeans /wait "C:Program FilesNetBeans 7.3in
etbeans64.exe"), 1, True

But there is an error:

expected: ')'

Answer 1

Within a literal string, a single double-quote character is represented by two double-quote characters. So try the following instead:

Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objShell.Run """C:Program FilesSandboxieStart.exe"" /box:NetBeans /wait ""C:Program FilesNetBeans 7.3in
etbeans64.exe""", 1, True
Set objShell = Nothing
