You can instantiate a WSH object, and this can run Perl code if you down the

Perl is another programming language. I think it was developed for the Unix
jocks and has been ported across platforms.

WSH is windows script host model. It's a scripting language that comes with
various versions of windows and MSInternet Explorer.

(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.
