I will confess to a secret VBScript habit (I don't get choice of platform at 
work and I have no permission to install better interpreters, okay?)
It's a thoroughly shitty language, the brain-damaged antisocial half-brother 
of Python,  but it gets these sorts of  jobs done.

I recommend "VBScript in a Nutshell", 2nd Edition, by O'Reilly.

As you *do* have permission to install a better language, consider installing 
Python itself, it has very good access to the Windows APIs and is much easier 
than DOS scripts or VB
