javascript only runs on the client computer...
Are you saying you want the script to move files from the client computer to another computer? JAvascript generally doesn't have access to those kind of resources.

Well I guess what you could do is if every computer was garunteed to have your script in the same location (i.e c:\webscript\my script.bat ), then you could have your webpage do a redirect to a local file like that.
The user will got lots of bells/whistles about security issues, but it could in theory work.

Hi,thanks for the reply .. are u sure it wont work with java script.. ???? is that possible in vb script ??? if yes can u give me the code

As mentioned above, JS client code doesn't have the necessary permissions to do system operations. You may wanna think about building an ActiveX component, which gets installed on the client to do just that. It's one of the alternatives. Another approach is to engage AJAX. Refer to this article:
