Running a Visual Basic program under wscript doesn't open a window.
For example to run a sh script:
--Begin P.vbs--
Dim objShell, intErr
Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
intErr = objShell.Run("C:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe /c/somePath/P.sh", 0, True)
Wscript.Quit(intErr)
--End P.vbs--
and schedule it as
"C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WSCRIPT.EXE //b c:\somePath\P.vbs"
under the task scheduler.
