What is VBScript?

VBScript is the abbreviation for Visual Basic Script, the Visual Basic scripting language, sometimes abbreviated as a VBS. ASP Dynamic Web page is the default programming language, with ASP built-in objects and ADO objects, users will soon be able to access the database of ASP Dynamic Web page development technology.

VBScript is a Microsoft developed scripting language, can be seen as a simplified version of the VB language, and the relationship between VBA is very close. It has the characteristics of easy learning in the original language. At present, this language is widely used in Web pages and ASP program production, but also can be directly as an executable program. It is convenient to debug simple VB statements.

Because VBScript can be used with Windows Scripting Host COM, you can use a library that can be used in a Windows operating system, such as it can use a library of Microsoft Office, especially with Microsoft Access and Microsoft SQL Server's library, and of course it can use other programs and libraries of the operating system itself.

Advantages:

Because VBScript is interpreted by a Web browser, there is no need to increase the burden on the server. Easy to learn. All 2000/98SE versions of Windows are available for immediate use. You can use other programs and objects that you can use (especially Microsoft Office).

Disadvantages:

Now VBS cannot be an attachment to an e-mail message. Microsoft Outlook refuses to accept the VBS as an attachment and the recipient cannot use the VBS attachment directly. The various editors of the VBS are not popular. The operating system does not have any special protection facilities. The VBS program is treated like any other JS, EXE, bat, or cmd program. The operating system does not have the ability to monitor malicious functions.
