D Dave Peterson May 1, 2004 #5 Perl is another programming language. I think it was developed for the Unix jocks and has been ported across platforms. http://www.perl.org/ WSH is windows script host model. It's a scripting language that comes with various versions of windows and MSInternet Explorer. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/nhp/default.asp?contentid=28001169 (one line in your browser) specifically: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...n-us/script56/html/wsoriWindowsScriptHost.asp (still one line) You can do lots of things pretty easily via scripts. And these can be incorporated into your VBA code or even used as standalone scripts. There are dedicated newsgroups for these, too.
