Exe ASP from command line

[Gary C. New]

WinNT 4.0 | ASP 3.0

I've found several postings on how to call .exe files from asp files and
info on WSH, but I am wondering if it is possible to execute an asp file
from the command line (simular to Perl for Win32). I came across a
posting suggesting to bind IE4 or some browser to the asp extention, but
I am looking for a more elegant solution.

By executing from the command line, do you mean by the client.
if so, do you mean an asp file on the internet, or a local file.

opening a local file will get you nowhere, since the ASP code will then not
be processed, If you open a file on a server (through http) you can use:
"start http://myserver/myfile.asp" this will work for local files as well
but it wont be processed...

I wish to execute the .asp file from a dos prompt on the related IIS
machine without envoking a client browser.

Hope this helps.

A quick and dirty approach: Use graburl 'URL'. I'm doing that with one
site that's worked well for a while.
