Calling a script from a VB program.

Hi,

I'm writing a program which requires very different code if certain
technologies are being used (e.g. it might output results in a csv file, a
text file, a HTML file, a word document) depending on the requirements.
However, the requirements are subject to change, so I don't want to/can't
plan for every eventuality!

So, I decided to use an 'exit', i.e. a user-written script that will do the
task, given an appropriate input. Soooo, my question is how can I call, e.g.
a VBScript script (although ideally I would like to use any script if there
is a nice general-purpose method for that) from a VB program. I will need to
be able to pass a parameter(s), and get a result back.

Any pointers will be appreciated.

Thanks, Rowland.
