Script Demand - goal is open pdf with different user

Hello all,

I am trying to have a pdf open using a different user. I have managed to do so using a bat file containing a runas command executed with a an external commande but the thing is that I have a cmd popup that I would like to avoid. By creating a .vbs file that runs this bat file, I am able to open the pdf without the cmd popup but pcdmis seems to be unable to run this .vbs file. Is it possible thorugh basic scripting to open that bat file or the pdf directly using another user? Maybe start a task scheduled on demand?

Thanks in advance for your ideas!

Good Day,

This seems to be working in 2021.2

Basic Script:

Sub Main
   Shell "wscript C:\Users\QS\Desktop\test.vbs", vbNormalFocus
End Sub

pcDMIS Call the basic Script:

CS2        =SCRIPT/FILENAME= C:\USERS\QS\DESKTOP\TEST.BAS
            FUNCTION/Main,SHOW=YES,,
            STARTSCRIPT/
            ENDSCRIPT/

the *.vbs script i used (shows ComputerName)

  dim Network
  set Network = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
  MsgBox "" & Network.UserName
  MsgBox "" & Network.ComputerName
