Product Description
What is this book about?
The VBScript standard has changed over time, and several new things have been introduced since this book first published in 1999. The current standard for VBScript is 5.6. The script debugger, script control, and script encoder have all changed and the Windows Script Component Wizard, regular expressions, and remote scripting have been introduced. Windows Script Host technology has also matured over time and gained in both effectiveness and popularity.
VBScript Programmer′s Reference, 2nd Edition begins with discussion of the general syntax, functions, keywords, style, error handling, and similar language–specific topics and then moves into an expanded reference section covering the object models in detail. The book combines a comprehensive overview of the VBScript technology and associated technologies with practical examples at every stage from beginner to advanced user.
Specific topics include the following:
- Variables and Data Types
- Procedures
- Error Handling and Debugging
- Windows Script Components
- Script Encoding
- Remote Scripting
- Data Objects
- Coding Conventions
From the Back Cover
VBScript is an incredibly versatile tool—easy to learn, powerful, and flexible. This fully updated guide combines a comprehensive overview of VBScript and associated technologies with practical examples you can use, whether you’re a beginner, a veteran programmer, or a network administrator.
If you’re new at VBScript, or even to programming, this book will teach you what you need to know about this multipurpose language. If you’re experienced, you can skip the fundamentals and focus on the updates in this version, including changes to the script debugger, control and encoder, as well as the Windows Script Component Wizard, regular expression, and remote scripting. Finally, everyone who works with VBScript will learn how to use VBScript with ASP and DHTML, write powerful login scripts, and automate repetitive, time–consuming, and error–prone tasks with Windows Script Host.
Packed with practical examples and up–to–the–minute coverage, this reference takes you as deep into VBScript as you choose to go.
