Thanks for the reply. I already have "Learning Python" from Mark Lutz and David Ascher, which covers 2.3 (I am in 2.4). However, it seems like heavy artillery to me. What I want is, for instance, run a VBScript to get a function output and feed it to the Python script that called it. The reason is that because I feel more comfortable with VBScript and have written a small library of useful utilities, I don't want it to become obsolete. In the mean time I did more reading and found a couple of prospective alternatives - popen and os.system(command). Still need to work out how to use them...
