help

I have a cold fusion file that does a few things with SQL and the file itself works great. However, I want to "kick off" or start the job with a Vbscript/JavaScript instead of using cf scheduler or having the user click a button/event. Is it possible to run a cf file basically like a batch file? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated?
