WSH brings new scripting capabilities to NT
If you administer or manage Windows NT networks, you'll want to know about Microsoft's Windows Scripting Host.

Sir,
I feel lucky I could so much valuable information on wscript on your site, eventhough I have to admit I discovered them by myself. As I am fighting against my Win NT4.0 server down here in Belgium, attempting to schedule a script, I had to look further on Task Manaer, AT command and wscript modes.
Maybe could you explain me or redirect me to one knowing, why I can't schedule a VBS script. It runs fine at MS_DOS prompt, with or without "wscript" prefix, but each time I place some AT command, it reschedule it for the next day and in the Task Manager (Alt-Ctr-Del) I can see the WSH pending. I tried several wscript options 5//B batch, //NoLogo,...)... no success.
Thanks for your kind assistance,
Best regards
