How do I run/open a robotask tsk using Visual Basic?
I tried shelling a batch file and it runs but never fully does what it was supposed to do

Run batch file is the simplest way
but never fully does what it was supposed to do

The problem is this
when I use this macro outside of being called from Visual Basic, that macro works just fine.
When I call this macro from a batch file inside of Visual Basic a black screen comes up flashes and ends, and then the task is never executed

You can RoboTask.App object.
Read more about RoboTaskApp here
Below is an example of the script
Code: Select all
Set obj = CreateObject("RoboTask.App")
obj.startTask "TestTask1", ""
RoboTask is 32-bit application, so this script works wrom 32-bit applications too.
You can write VBS file with same script and run it by command line
Code: Select all
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wscript.exe RunTask.vbs
is the 32-bit version of script engine
