Course Description:

'' In many current technology areas there is often a need to automate tasks without the need to create a large application. This can be automating system administration tasks; dynamic web page creation; creating web page testing scripts. It is in this gap that scripting (or script programming) fits. Script programming within the Windows environment is very powerful. Scripts can ease the burden of a network administrator by automating repetitive and laborious tasks. They can make information from machines in the enterprise easily available. Scripts can access databases, text files and spreadsheets. They can make websites interactive and bring powerful functionality to the website designer’s armory.

The creation of scripts, however, still needs knowledge of programming methodology �specifications, design, logical breakdown of the task and programming the script itself. This course will take the scripting novice, highlight the design and task analysis procedures, before going on to instruct in the use of VBScript to create scripts.

As well as requiring knowledge of script the successful scriptwriter will need knowledge of the environment their script will run in. This course finishes with the knowledge of how to access the environment (through the object model of that environment) and show examples of some common environments e.g. in a web environment as an .ASP page or as a useful tool for the network administrator in WSH.



Prerequisites
This course assumes little since it is an introduction. Knowledge and use of the Windows interface would be beneficial.
Any delegates with good current practical experience of VB, VBA, or similar programming languages will find it better to go on the follow-on courses directly
Delegates will learn how to
Understand the thought processes of a programmer
Build basic specifications and flowcharts
Understand VBScript programming syntax
Understand the benefits of procedureal programming
Create simple scripts
Understand objects
Recall a few object models
