I would like to keep this as simple as i can and so if I can work with
the format below it would be very helpful.  I am very new to VBscript
and am finding my way as i go.

 If WScript.Arguments.Named.Exists( "e" ) Then
      CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" ).Run "notepad"
   Else
      WScript.Echo "no no"
   End If

Cheers!

As the options you want to work with

   <yourscript>.vbs /c:"something else here" /u:"a reference here"

aren't simple boolean (yes/no) switches like in

   <yourscript>.vbs /e

you can't just check whether the user entered an option name (e.g. /c) but
you have to read/store/work with the option value (e.g. "something else here").

I C - well basically with both the /c:"something else here" /u:"a
reference here" i want to set a variable if they are used...
Suggestions?
