Or you could try using the "UVRunCommand()" function instead of "dos
/c".
This was introduced (in 10.1 IIRC) as a result of an E-case I opened,
but is documented only in the 10.2 GCI manual.
Usage is:
!-----------------------------------------------------------------------
---
DECLARE GCI UVRunCommand
!-----------------------------------------------------------------------
---
DOSString = <your DOS command>
MyStatus = UVRunCommand('c:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe /c
':DOSString)
IF MyStatus NE 0 THEN
<handle an error>
END
!-----------------------------------------------------------------------
---
The major advantage of "UVRunCommand()" over "DOS /c" is that it handles
quoted strings correctly. "DOS /c" scrambles a quoted string.

Hi Dave
It should take the permissions of whatever user you have logged into
UniVerse with.
At the risk of asking the obvious, have you logged in as that admin
user?
Also, it shouldn't make any difference but do you get the same error if
you create a verb pointer directly to CSCRIPT.EXE instead of shelling
via DOS /C ?

Subject: [U2] Odd permissions error running a vb script using
dos /c command
I have a vb script that updates a filezilla configuration file
on another server given a username and password. Universe 10.2 is
running on a Windows 2003 Server. The Universe Server has administrator
permissions on the other server. If I run the script from the windows
command line of the Universe server, it works perfectly. If I run the
script from TCL or execute it from Unibasic it throws up a permissions
error pointing to the write line of the vbscript.
When running from the windows command line, I'm running:
cscript.exe d:\newage\createftp.vbs "Username" "Password"
From UV, I'm running dos /c cscript.exe createftp.vbs "UserName"
"Password"
Windows messages are:
