running an exe in asp

Question

Hi, I have an ASP site(not asp.net, old asp) which executes some lines on the server-side.

I want to run an exe in the server side code, but i'm not familiar with asp programming - the site I got was already built, i just need to add this little code and that's all. I think the ASP code is in VB as it's very familiar to VB and has the same syntax.

Thanks

The idea is to work with WShell object.
