How to convert this VBScript code to use with JScript in TestComplete?

Question

How to convert the following VBScript code to use with JScript in TestComplete? We are trying to invoke the application/.exe using Windows Script Host functions instead of the predefined functions in TestComplete.

strExe = "C:\whatever\myprogram.exe -h1 -d33"
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strExe)
strExeOut = objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll

Here's the JScript version:

var strExe = "C:\\whatever\\myprogram.exe -h1 -d33";
var objShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
var objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strExe);
var strExeOut = objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll();
