Windows® Script Host (WSH) is a powerful,
flexible tool for automating recurring PC tasks. MICROSOFT® WINDOWS
SCRIPT HOST 2.0 DEVELOPER'S GUIDE is a complete guide to using WSH to unlock
the power and performance of your PC through automation. It's packed with
details about all major features of WSH, plus related topics such as how
to extend WSH features with custom ActiveX® components and how to access
other Automation objects. It also provides in-depth information on how
to use WSH with two popular scripting languages: Microsoft Visual Basic®,
Scripting Edition (VBScript), and Microsoft JScript®. This book is
ideal for anyone who works with automation scripts-from the programming
novice who wants to learn the basics to the adept scripter who creates
scripts in Perl, Python, TCL, or other scripting languages. Learn how you
can do all this and more with a single mouse click or keystroke sequence:
-
Back up or restore files, shut down or restart
Windows, and perform other shutdown and startup routines.
-
Launch a Microsoft Office application; load,
process, and print a document; and close the application.
-
Directly access the Windows shell and Windows
application programming interface (API) to create shortcuts, map drives
or printers, and control applications.
-
Read environment variables or retrieve information
about Windows, and display dialog boxes to learn about an application's
status or to retrieve user input.
Why use MS-DOS® batch files, macro recorders,
or costly, difficult third-party Automation tools when you can use the
most powerful, intuitive, free automation tool for Windows? Windows Script
Host 2.0 lets you create and execute scripts to tailor your Windows system
for your own needs-simply and with complete programmatic control.
