You may doubt it, but I don't. It's a moniker that implies (aside from childishness on the part of the person who uses it) that Microsoft is a company that is all about corporate greed. That's an unfair characterization and IMO, is insulting to the 75%+ of Microsoft employees who spend a lot of their own time and money in philanthropic pursuits. It's also dismissive of the actual motivation of most Microsoft employees who I know, which is to produce software that makes businesses and people more equipped to do what they need to do.This is just my personal opinion and is in no way intended to represent the views of my employer, which, as it happens, is Microsoft.So yes, there are Microsoft employees who find it offensive.Laura

Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: M$Just out of curiosity, what makes people think it's appropriate to refer to Microsoft as "M$" on an MS-focused mailing list whose participants include Microsoft employees, Microsoft contractors, Microsoft MVPs and various other people who may have a relatively positive view of Microsoft?Laura

I have no experience in scripting, but would like to know what books do you recommend as a beginner's book on scripting? Also, I don't really know the difference between WSH and _vbscript_, so if anyone could explain that, I'd appreciate that.. After browsing through Amazon, I saw several books on WSH and _vbscript_, but don't know where I should focus on. I'm also open to computer based training (CBT) videos of any exist.
