Hello All,

I'm new to VBScripting - for that matter any scripting.

I would want to learn to write VBScripts to communicate with SQLServer,
Automate via DMO and MS-DTS. I have no intention to learn VBScripting as
applied
to IE and IIS.

To start off, is there a way to find out the version of the Scripting Host
that is there
on my desktop. I'm just trying to make sure that I'm using the latest
interpreter.

Thanks,
Gopi

Run cscript.exe from the command line. You may see this:

Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.6

To find the precise version of Windows Scripting Host, look at the file
properties of %SystemRoot%\System32\cscript.exe or
%SystemRoot%\System32\wscript.exe.

Running cscript.exe at the command prompt shows you only the major and minor
build number.
