Subject: [ActiveDir] (hopefully) quick syntax question

Guys, I’m stuck on something that’s probably easy…I’m doing a DC startup script, and it uses the WScript Exec method. The command includes a string with a space, so from a command line, I would normally type:

                Command “my string”

 

Since the syntax of the Exec method is ws.exec(“command”), I don’t know how to deal with the quotes. This doesn’t seem to work:

                Ws.exec(“command “my string””)

 

How do I build that line properly? Thanks!

Mark
