running system commands from within ASP

[Brad Pears]

What is the syntax for running say... a batch file (.bat) from within ASP?

For example... in MS Access you can say something like this...
----------------------------------------------------------
CurrentDBDir = "c:\"
ShellWait CurrentDBDir & "runthis.bat", vbNormalFocus
----------------------------------------------------------

This would run the "runthis.bat" file located in the c:\ directory...

How would one accomplish this same thing in ASP?

Thanks,

Brad

Yes, I realize that. Not a problem as GnuPG will be installed on the
providers win2k3 web server.
Can you send me an exacmple of the actual syntax of the shell call?

Thanks,

Brad
