How do i execute DOS batch file in web server by ASP

Question

In my asp page, i want to provide a button for user to click and then execute a DOS batch file in server (e.g. C:\Batch\copy.bat in web server).

How can i do it ? Thanks

I had tried

<% 
    set wshell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 
    wshell.run "c:\file.bat" 
    set wshell = nothing 
%> 

but it doesn't work and seems it run c: on user pc, not web server.

regards,

Joe
