RunAsWait not accepting variable from drop and drag path

[Carm01]

Hello,

I am trying to create a way to drop and drag a file path using some examples in the help and then take that variable and pass it on to a runaswait so i can run whatever program i want with specified user rights.

This problem i cant seem to get around is the fact that the variable $file is retained when drop and drag is preformed, however the runaswait command does not seem to recognize it, as a result no program is ran , but the message box shows that the variable retains the path ( message box used used for testing of script ).

I spend a few hours trying various things to try to resolve this including trying to include quotes in the variable path, changing passing the $file to another variable, and several more. 

Odd enough if I set the variable it works, but defeats the purpose of being able to choose any program to run with a specified account ( this is for a domain environment, however should function the same on local account ) 

Any assistance is appreciated

Try this :

RunAsWait($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, GUICtrlRead($qwerty), "", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "drag drop file", GUICtrlRead($qwerty))

instead
