VBScript 
Visual Basic Script 
A programming language developed by Microsoft for creating scripts (miniprograms) that can be embedded into HTML Web pages for viewing with Internet Explorer. These scripts can make Web pages more interactive. VBScript works with Microsoft ActiveX controls, allowing Web site developers to create forms, interactive multimedia, games, and other Web-based programs. VBScript is similar in functionality to JavaScript and is a subset of the widely used Microsoft Visual Basic programming language.
