5 unusual facts about Windows Script File


Windows Script File

The most memorable example for long-time VBScript users is the use of Microsoft JScript to service a sort request for VBScript since it does not have a built-in sort function for an array of values.

VBScript users may write their own sort method or borrow one from an existing object like an ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) Recordset or a .

NET (.NET Framework) ArrayList, but the fastest way to sort an array is to use the method built into JScript.

In regular VBScript and JScript files, you would be forced to declare a constant's value (outside of those that are internal to the Windows Script Host) in order to use the constant.

It allows mixing the scripting languages JScript and VBScript within a single file, or other scripting languages such as Perl, Object REXX, Python, or Kixtart if installed by the user.
