Question

I have some code that used to work. But I today when I try it again. I kept got “[object error]”.

I thought it’s the problem of IE safety configure. But I can find how to config IE to make it work.

function Run() {
  try   {
    var objShell = new ActiveXObject("wscript.shell");
    objShell.Run("calc");
  } catch(e) {
    alert(e);
  }
}

Answer 1

You must enable ActiveX:

• Click on Tools
• Select Internet Options…
• Select Security tab.
• Select Internet in Web content zone.
• Then, click on Custom Level…
• Go through all the ActiveX setting there, select Prompt or Enable
