I'm not sure about the method you're using, but if the script you're running can be run as an ASP page you could kick it off using an asynchronous MSXML HTTP call to the page which would start it processing but not wait for the result to be returned. Dan

The goal is to have the server execute code which the user will not have to wait for the completion of. This separate script would also generate an email at the end, using CDO.Message. As a proof of concept, I created an ASP page that uses WScript.Shell, to run cscript.exe in order to kick off a .wsf file, which contains the email code. -But it doesn't work, and I don't know why. -I can execute the .wsf script locally, using cscript from a command line. -I know the server is configured correctly to send email, because if I copy and paste the email code into the initial asp page, it works. But when I try to execute the wsf from the asp, it no longer works. Can anyone explain why? I'm new to ASP, so would appreciate hearing other methods of executing asynchronous scripting, other than the method I'm attempting to use. Hope that's enough information, thanks in advance... ________________________________ YAHOO!
