For many of the above uses, Active Scripting is an addition to Windows that is similar to the functionality of Unix shell scripts, as well as an incremental improvement upon batch files (command.com), Windows NT style shell scripts (cmd.exe) and, by way of VBScript, the replacement for QBasic, which was last available on the supplementary disc ...
Microsoft Script Debugger is relatively minimal debugger for Windows Script Host-supported scripting languages, such as VBScript and JScript.Its user interface allows the user to set breakpoints and/or step through execution of script code line by line, and examine values of variables and properties after any step.
Code written in VBA is compiled [6] to Microsoft P-Code (pseudo-code), a proprietary intermediate language, which the host applications (Access, Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint) store as a separate stream in COM Structured Storage files (e.g., .doc or .xls) independent of the document streams.
A block is a grouping of code that is treated collectively. Many block syntaxes can consist of any number of items (statements, expressions or other units of code) – including one or zero. Languages delimit a block in a variety of ways – some via marking text and others by relative formatting such as levels of indentation.
Named and unnamed command line arguments; Stdin and stdout, which could be redirected; WSH.Echo which writes to the console and cannot be redirected; WSH.ExitCode which can be tested from DOS batch files, or by the process which invoked the script file; Network printers; Network shares; Special folders, e.g. Desktop, Favorites, MyDocuments and ...
In Microsoft Windows applications programming, OLE Automation (later renamed to simply Automation [1] [2]) is an inter-process communication mechanism created by Microsoft.It is based on a subset of Component Object Model (COM) that was intended for use by scripting languages – originally Visual Basic – but now is used by several languages on Windows.
However, JScript supports conditional compilation, which allows a programmer to selectively execute code within block comments. This is an extension to the ECMAScript standard that is not supported in other JavaScript implementations, thus making the above statement not completely true, although conditional compilation is no longer supported in ...
Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) [30] is a scripting language embedded in many Microsoft applications such as Microsoft Office, and third-party products like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, WordPerfect Office 2002, ArcGIS, Sage 300 ERP, and Business Objects Desktop Intelligence. There are small inconsistencies in the way VBA is implemented in different ...
