What are the difference between vb and vbscript?
VB, or Visual Basic, is a scripting language developed by
Microsoft. Visual Basic can be used to program many things,
although it does have limits. VB also requires a compiler. VBScript
on the other hand, does not. VBScript was also introduced by
Microsoft, and is a simplified version of Visual Basic. While
VBScript has more limitations than VB, Windows already comes with
all you need to make a simple VBScript program. To make a VBScript
program, you simply need to open a text editor, such as Notepad,
type in the code and save it with a file extension of .vbs. If you
are willing to download/buy a compiler, Visual Basic will be much
more useful. However, if you only want to create simple programs,
stick with VBScript. There is still a lot you can do with it.
