Some tips for doing things in vbscript.

• Convert a relative path to an absolute path
  
  strDirName = objFSO.GetAbsolutePathName(strDirName)
• Type-cast a String to an Integer
  
  intNumber = CInt(strNumber)
• Regular expressions in VBScript
  
  Set objIPAddressRegEx= new RegExp 'Create a RegExp object
  objIPAddressRegEx.Pattern = "\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+"
  objIPAddressRegEx.IgnoreCase = True
  If objIPAddressRegEx.Test("10.1.1.1") Then
      WScript.Echo "String matched regular expression"
  End If
