In any case my translated script should work fine, if it doesn't then either the original VBS that you supplied here didn't work, or it isn't the original vbs that you started out with in the first place.
ok m8 went back to trying yours again, still just get the number 2 come up in console - the vbs script works fine no issues and I double checked my first post and I copied the code exactly.
No idea why this is failing in KIX...shame I may have to call the VBS script seperatly then
