VB Script For Automating tasks

[Guest sudhi_shrivatsa]

I have a fair knowledge C, C++ programming knowledge. I would like to

automate some day to day tasks of win2k & win2k3 servers through VB SCript.

Can anyone tell me the good resource , book to read and practice on VBScript.

This should be specifically on Operating System tasks.

 

Cheers,

Sudhi...

I would suggest skipping over VBScript and working with PowerShell.

Powershell is FAR more powerfull.

If you have to learn something new start with PowerShell.

Sudhi,

 

The most comprehensive book out there in my opinion is:

 

"Microsoft Windows 2000 Scripting Guide" from the MS Resource Kit Team.

 

It is out of print but you can find copies at alibris and ebay for around

$10-15 for a 1300 page book. It is very comprehensive and has extensive code

samples.
