VBSCRIPT FILES: (.vbs)

No, VBScript is an 'interpreted' language; where the code is both read/interpreted and translated into machine code line by line; this is a rather 'slow' method of doing things, though, when compared with using a 'compiled' language, instead.

A compiled language, on the other hand; runs code much faster; because it translates the whole entire program into machine code *before* running it. Compiled languages are used to create stand alone executable (.exe) files with.

VBScript does NOT create stand alone executable (.exe) files; instead, VBScript creates (.vbs) files; which rely on having an interpreter program to work.

====

CONCLUSION

As you can see from my short descriptions above...which are by no means fully exhaustive; VBScript, is a rich, powerful, and, extremely diverse form of programming technology; which in my own humble opinion, is very well worth learning; as it gives you lots of control covering many different areas; and, especially so, if you are interested in working with Microsoft Windows based technologies.
