It's not that hard, Steve. WSH.CHM has a tutorial on the WSH and VBSCRIP5.CHM has a language reference that has information on the fundamentals. Both come with the MSDN Library. It's fairly simple and very much like VFP in terms of syntax. Of course, I'm a long time user of various flavors of BASIC, so I may be making it seem simpler than it would be for someone who isn't. Still, I don't think that anyone in this forum would have that difficult a time picking it up.

Hope you like the articles.
