Passing parameters between JAL and VBS

Do anybody know if it is possible to pass parameters between JAL and VBS ?

Do you mean passing parameters when invoking VBS code from JAL code or passing parameters between jobs of different types?

In the first case, the script is executed dynamically as a text. You can build it anything you want and concatenate parameter values as needed. In the second case you can save values to INI files, other text files, database, etc.. and read it from another job.

If you need more help, please post specific example and describe where you got stuck.

Yes, would like to pass parameter to VBS via JAL. Basically I would like to pass a parameter called 'username' to the vbs, then capture the return 'value' from vbs.

JAL code
DIM (global.value,string)
DIM (global.username,string)
SET (global.username,"KLWONG")
VBScriptexecute "C:\KLTEST.VBS"
Messagebox (global.value)

VBS code (file C:\KLTEST.VBS)
Sub main()
If username = "KLWONG" Then value = "TRUE"
End Sub

Try to run and the JAL job disabled. I suspect is the way I pass the parameter and appreciate any help.

VBScriptExecute statement requires the actual code to be executed, not a file name of an external VBScript file. The code is executed internally by VBScript engine running within 24x7 instance.
Forr example

	Code:
	Dim vb, string ContactEx( "Sub Main()\r\nIf \"", username, "\" = "KWONG" Then\r\n", ...and so on..., vb ) VBSCriptExecute( vb )

Note that concatenation of username parameter.

Now, how about using ProcessKill statement in JAL instead of all this mess? Or using KillProcess utility http://www.softtreetech.com/24x7/archive/49.htm which can be invoked using Run or RunAndWait?

I see, thanks for the clarification.

By the way you also mentioned about the 'ProcessKill' in your respond. Do I need to use this under the scenario ? Just in case I missed something.

Sorry, I don't get your question. In which schenario?

Your reply say

I was wondering what this is for ??

Sorry, I misread your initial question. I read KLTEST.VBS as KILLTEST.VBS. Killing processes is a common question on this board. Please disregard the ProcessKill reference.
