This looks like we're making some progress, and it looks like I do have something else to shoot for besides networking-based applications (which is the main reason for me learning C#.) Bu it would be interesting for PowerShell to be introduced as another language for WE scripting support. And the funny thing is that PowerShell is a scripting language, Microsoft's preference over VBS anyway.

It might have been something to do with that Message Processing problem I mentioned but I think you, or one of the other guys, had mentioned that problem had been addressed so I'm not sure that was the problem. I think I still have that VB.net project floating around and will ReVisit it. If I get it working I will post it as another example of scripting WE from within the Visual Studio (VB.net Express) environment. If not I will post up any problems I encounter. It might take a few days as I am tied up with something else but I will give it another go before long. Hay, you other folks who program are invited to give it a go in another language. Kate, what about Power Basic?
