BFS.Application.StartHidden
scripting function will be in the next beta.

I understand how to run a batch file through DF, but can't figure out how to make it run silently/without the cmd window visible. I found BFS.Application.StartHidden, but then saw that it is not released yet.

I use wscript.exe and Invisible.vbs as a way to hide batch files that run through cmd/task scheduler. However, I can't seem to reference these as scripted function parameters, though they do work as custom function parameters.

C:/Windows/System32/wscript.exe
"Invisible.vbs" "somescript.bat"

Is there a way to do this currently through DF scripting? Getting a bunch of errors with the way I have tried so far. Thanks for any assistance. ]]>
