Excel VBA in Alteryx error

Question

Hey All,

I am trying to run excel VBA in Alteryx using the run command tool and I am getting an error: "Error: Run Command (3): The external program "cscript.exe" returned an error code: 1"

I have tried running it with just "cscript" in the Run External command and that is also not working. I have followed the example on the community but those errors out as well, so I am not sure what am I doing wrong?

What happens when you run that command - with that argument in command prompt outside of Alteryx? Usually error code 1 points to an erorr outside of Alteryx.
