In VBScript if myScript.vbs runs otherScript.bat, and in otherScript.bat, there's a pause statement. How can I send a keystroke to skip that pause from myScript.vbs? So my script won't need to take any extract keystroke and won't be blocked by the pause.

There is an answer in another thread with example for acheving this in a batch file, but I need somthing similar in VBScript. Introducing another batch file between myScript.vbs and Otherscript.bat is one dirty solution, but is there a direct way?

Just remove the `pause` statement from the batch file? – Ansgar Wiechers Oct 12 '17 at 07:56
I can only modify myScript.vbs. – user1066231 Oct 12 '17 at 08:31

perhaps running the .bat asynchronously (without wait on return) then using the `appactivate` and `sendkey` methods? – Albert F D Oct 14 '17 at 20:11
