Option Explicit
Dim strSourcePath
strSourcePath = Left(WScript.ScriptFullName,Len(WScript.ScriptFullName) _
 - Len(WScript.ScriptName))

The returned String contains already a trailing slash () so you just have to add the rest of the path or the exe
e.g
strSourcePath & "foo.exe" and not strSourcePath & "\foo.exe"
