How to disable ECHO DIALOGS for Windows Script Host running a vbs file?

Ran into a problem today. I have a Windows Server 2003 with a bunch of .bat files that essentially start .vbs scripts. Every time an ECH is used in the script I get that annoying dialog box that contains content of an echo and requires to click ENTER all the time. How can I just disable the dialogs and keep ECHOs in the command prompt window only?

Force it to run under cscript instead of wscript

If you are running the script manually, just put cscript in front of it.

Otherwise, this might give you an approach:

Redirect the output somewhere else, i.e.

scriptname.vbs > textfile.txt
