Is VBScript for web pages only?

[drhowarddrfine]

I wrote a question in the Windows forum and, after searching around, thought that VBScript might do what I want but, after searching this morning, I got the impression VBScript only works in the browser. Yes?

If not, perhaps you guys can help with my question in the Windows forum.

Greetings, drhowarddrfine!

This may help, I actually do not use vbScript, but I suspect it is being used for permissions on a variety of systems:

You can have stand alone VBScript, it is mainly used by system admins managing windows based desktops/servers. It runs under the Windows Scripting Host engine.
