My reading of this documentation is that one can provide VB script to the command line arguments, not that one needs to set this flag in order to allow VBS. Also remember that if I provide a first argument to the GetObject there is no error nor is there an error when run directly in the Windows Scripting Host and not through WindowEyes. I am wondering if perhaps it is a 64 versus 32 bit issue.
