Microsoft VBScript: Introduction For Beginners

Product Description

In many current technology areas there is often a need to automate tasks without the need to create a large application. This can be automating system administration tasks; dynamic web page creation; creating web page testing scripts. It is in this gap that scripting (or script programming) fits. Script programming within the Windows environment is very powerful. Scripts can ease the burden of a network administrator by automating repetitive & laborious tasks. They can make information from machines in the enterprise easily available. Scripts can access databases, text files & spreadsheets. They can make websites interactive & bring powerful functionality to the website designer's armory.

The creation of scripts, however, still needs knowledge of programming methodology
- specifications, design, logical breakdown of the task & programming the script itself. This course will take the scripting novice, highlight the design & task analysis procedures, before going on to instruct in the use of VBScript to create scripts.

As well as requiring knowledge of script the successful scriptwriter will need knowledge of the environment their script will run in. This course finishes with the knowledge of how to access the environment (through the object model of that environment) & show examples of some common environments e.g. in a web environment as an. ASP page or as a useful tool for the network administrator in WSH.
