Those are two different things. VBScript was the Macro language used in Office Products. There is also an SDK for VB/VB.NET for developing plug-ins and other tools that's completely different.
- jetti 8y agoVisual Basic for Applications (VBA) was what is used in Office Products and that is modeled after Visual Basic 6, not VBScript. VBScript was used mostly for Classic ASP development (both front end and backend).
- dvlsg 8y agoYou could use vbscript for, well, scripting. Essentially taking the same position / purpose as batch files on windows. Pretty sure that still works. I wouldn't do it anymore, personally, but I'm almost positive it's still functional.
- jetti 8y agoYou could, but I believe most of VBScript use came from web dev. I have the fortune of working on a classic asp site at work now.
