Run script as administrator passing arguments

Question

I am trying to run one command as administrator but I am getting error. Below is the code.

VBScript:

MyPath ="C:\Destination"
Dim objShell
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")  
objShell.ShellExecute "C:\batchScript.cmd " & MyPath &, "", "", "runas", 1

batchScript.cmd:

echo %1
psfile %1 -c

Wild guess (since you didn't deem it necessary to actually show the error message): you're using the concatenation operator (&) without something to actually concatenate:

objShell.ShellExecute "C:\batchScript.cmd " & MyPath &, "", "", "runas", 1
'                                                    ^

and you're also passing arguments as part of the command.

Remove the spurious concatenation operator and pass the argument as an actual argument:

objShell.ShellExecute "C:\batchScript.cmd", MyPath, "", "runas", 1

Also, $args[0] is not a valid variable in a batch file.
