Default Does the Shell method work in VB Script?

Good Morning:

I've been trying to invoke Robert Sparnaaij's clear cache VB Script from VB
Script code on a custom Appointment Item form using the "Shell" method. I've
been getting "Type mismatch" runtime errors on "Shell"; indicating that it
appears that VB Script thinks that "Shell" is a variable and not a method.

Is the "Shell" method available in VB Script? If so, how do I get it to
work? If not, is there any other method I can use in VB Script to execute a
..VBS saved in a network drive. The path I want to use is
"\\servername\foldername\foldername\Clear_cache.vb s"

Thanks for your help.
