Just a small addition: WSH (scripting) was available in Win98, but it was
an installation option, so it depends on how the OS was loaded. Get the
newest version (there have been considerable updates). Also get MS WSH CHM
file download, with syntax and basic information.

The WSH (VBScript and JScript) CHM download contains general concepts,
syntax, etc. For the WSH CHM documentation download or any updates, use the
following urls:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/search.aspx?displaylang=en
The MS Download Center (English Language)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/results.aspx?productID=478EA476-5552-479E-A200-2C33FFD43F24&freetext=&DisplayLang=en
WSH Updates, Documentation and Utility Downloads (English Language)

Windows Scripting Documentation Download (English Language)

For WSH downloads in languages other than English, click on The MS Download
Center link, then select the desired language and click the Go button in the
Worldwide Downloads drop-down box. Once in the appropriate language, select
the equivalent of the Windows Script category in the Product/Technology
drop-down box, and then click the Go button in that box.
