Hi,

is the used environment (DOM, WScript, Scripting, Server, etc.) the
global scope or is there another scope sitting behind?

I would especially be interested, as how to translate the 'window'
object of the DOM into ActiveX Scripting and especially the WSH.

Hi, Andreas

What definition are you using for DOM? To me, it means documented
object model, which might refer to documentation for the IE object
model, the ADO object model, the Word object model, the Excel object
model, or documentation for the model of any of the other many objects
available to scripting. Object which display a window, such as IE or
HTAs, typically have a window object which can be manipulated with
script.

Plain scripts, like .WSF, .VBS, .JS or .PY text files are typically
seen as a WScript process in the task manager process list; for these
scripts there is no 'window' unless they create an object that does
present a window, like the internetexplorer.application object, and
manipulate that window through that application's DOM.

I guess I'm not clear on what you want.
