Hello again,
I Was recently offered a chance to make some money by writing some scripts for a Small Business Network company. The main boss offered me this if i could learn Windows Scripting.
So A Few Questions:
Does anyone know Windows Scripting?
How long might it take me to learn?
Any Tips For my first scripts?
Where can I get Windows Scripting? How much it cost?
Thanks Alot.

I'm thinking that can be referenced here:

It depend on how complex the scripting language.
My advice: Don't use scripting as programming.
I think you can get it on your own OS or other Windows programs on your computer such as Internet Explorer and they seems to be free.

I say the website is wrong in essential points.
The term `scripting language', or at least when used to refer to a language as exclusively for `scripting', is outdated and irrelevant.
One can compile perl and one can also interpret C.
The distinction is meaningless; all languages that are turing complete are programming languages.

Thank for your correction and I'll try to be more general.

It's fine.
I'm just kinda bored and feel like arguing.
Ooh!
I know, I'll program something.
