EXACTLY

This is what I have found, simple Perl loops and routines takes ages to mimic in VBS. And What I can’t get over in the slowness of VBS!!!

I was offered a contract as VBS developer!!! They took me on based on my Perl knowledge. In my interview I was asked about general programming techniques and various OS knowledge which I had no problem answering. Then they got in to more detailed programming questions about VBS, here I informed that my VB knowledge only extends to WSH (which I only done through Perl). Then, the interviewers put to me various situation where a code is required and how I would go about generating the code, I answered as if I was doing it in Perl BUT without mentioning the word Perl, so they assumed that how its done in VBS! I have never written any VBS in my life. But I got the contract Thought! Now I have to find a way to get rid of all them VBS stuff (when I start with them in 2 weeks time) or I am screwed….:-D
