The goal of this book is to provide programmers, power users, and system administrators who have a previous programming background with a project-oriented approach to learning the VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting) language. VBScript is a member of the Visual Basic family of programming languages that includes both Visual Basic and VBA (Visual Basic for Applications).

VBScript is a scripting language that acts as a tool for rapid application development in a host of different operating environments. VBScript provides the ability to automate tasks on Windows operating systems using the WSH (Windows Script Host). The WSH provides VBScripts with access to Windows resources, such as the Windows file system, the desktop, the registry, and network resources. In addition, when combined with HTML and executed within Internet Explorer, VBScript allows the user to create interactive client-side Web content.

The book's opening chapters provide a complete review of VBScript, covering all the elements that make up this scripting language. The bulk of the book focuses on exploring the implementation of four scripting projects, each of which is based on a real-life scenario. In the first project, VBScript and the WSH are used to assist a small team of desktop engineers with the customization and deployment of new computers. The second project demonstrates how VBScript and the WSH can be used to assist a team of programmers analyzing reports generated by a collection of applications for which they are responsible.

The third project builds upon the work performed in the second project by demonstrating how to establish a centralized management reporting station where the programmers can view summary reports based on data retrieved from distributed computers. The final project demonstrates how to use VBScript, the WSH, and Internet Explorer to create dynamic Web content that displays information extracted from data generated by the third project.
