vb script isnt the same as visual basic, thats why Nate asked if you were doing visual basic

vb script is essentially a dumbed down version of vb for quick and dirty scripting,
whoever told you to use it over batch files is right
Its essentially the same as a batch file with some syntax differences and additional functionality;
Miscorosft actually has quite a good set of documents for it:
VBScript User's Guide

Good luck

yeah, thats why i asked <walks away slowly, whistling>

 

[Chronictank]

most of it will work anyway, the code is the stuff between <script></script>
you dont need the rest really
You just write it in a text file and save it with the .vbs extentsion

some basics for you, if you paste it in notepad, save the file as whatever.vbs you can see what happens

filename: vbscriptbasic.vbs

'Force all variables to be declared
Option Explicit

'Sets Global Variable Names
Dim strVariable				'this is a variable

'Main body of code
strVariable = "1"

If strVariable = "1" then 		'this is the structure of a if..then..else loop
  MsgBox "The if statement is true"
Else
  MsgBox "The if statement is false"
End if

Call aSubRoutine			'this is how you call a subroutine

'***Subroutines***
Sub aSubRoutine					'this is how you declare a subroutine
  Dim strlocalVariable				'this is how to declare a local variable, it only exists 
						' inside this sub routine
  strlocalvariable = "1" 			'this is how you enter a value into a variable
  MsgBox "strlocalVariable = " + strlocalVariable 'print the variable contents
End Sub
