Passing variables from C# to vbscript

[yomkippur18]

Can someone help me in passing a variable from c# to vbscript ?

you could try posting a little more information of what exactly your trying to do, or at least some more of the question. like how are you passing them ? networkly? or just through two apps on a local machine compiled by those two programming languages?

I just want to pass variables between two application on the local machine...For instance , I will put a value in a textbox in C# then pass that value to the vbscript.

well, im not a real big VB coder, well not VB6 and earlier, but i have worked with VB 2005 and VB 2008, one simple way is to do a streamwriter and streamreader to the temp directory of the user, or just anywhere, since youre working with two different programmign languages. so like

(to write in VB 2008)

   Dim mystreamwriter As New IO.StreamWriter("mystreamtowritevariable")
        mystreamwriter.Write("variable(s)/value(s)")
        mystreamwriter.Flush()
        mystreamwriter.Close()

and to read it in c sharp,(newer c sharp)

FileStream MyFileStream = new FileStream(@"c:\Projects\Testing.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.None);
      StreamReader MyStreamReader2 = new StreamReader(MyFileStream);
//write any code to read the data into a variable for that form
      MyFileStream.Close();
      MyStreamReader2.Close();

*now using this might use lots of resources and require file io permissions, if not in a 'permitted' directory, and not tested. but should work
