I have a fair knowledge C, C++ programming knowledge. I would like to
automate some day to day tasks of win2k & win2k3 servers through VB SCript.
Can anyone tell me the good resource , book to read and practice on VBScript.
This should be specifically on Operating System tasks.

Cheers,
Sudhi...

I would suggest skipping over VBScript and working with PowerShell.
Powershell is FAR more powerfull.

If you have to learn something new start with PowerShell.

Re: VB Script For Automating tasks

Sudhi,

The most comprehensive book out there in my opinion is:

"Microsoft Windows 2000 Scripting Guide" from the MS Resource Kit Team.

It is out of print but you can find copies at alibris and ebay for around
$10-15 for a 1300 page book. It is very comprehensive and has extensive code
samples.
