9.2. Build a VBScript Script

A script is simply a list of commands placed one after another and stored in a text file. Script commands are like building blocks: the more commands and programming techniques you learn, the broader your palette will be for making useful scripts. Some of the simpler building blocks will be used in this section of the Chapter to illustrate the way scripts are built. For more advanced topics, skip ahead to subsequent sections of this chapter.

To run a script, just double-click on the script file icon; you'll probably never need to run the Scripting Host program (wscript.exe) directly.
