Re: Automated Report Download
Hi, We have an AdWords API .NET library with VB.NET examples. You can use it to write code in VB.NET. Not exactly vbscript, but it should be quite similar. Also, AdWords API is a paid API, but we provide free API units to advertisers and agencies. http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/answer.py?hl=enanswer=45891 provides more details.

Re: Automated Report Download
Ok, I found the issue by reverse engineering the PHP library. My HTTP headers where Authorization: GoogleLogin Auth= when it should have been Authorization: GoogleLogin auth=! My mistake, but I'm curious why this causes a problem for AdWords but the same code doesn't cause any problems for the Analytics API. I can also confirm that you can indeed download reports without a developer token. However, due to the recent changes outline here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/sHvSoAQTy54 It is no longer possible to download a report defined in the UI, this leaves me dead in the water as I have no way of defining the report through the API without a Developer token. I've wasted several days of development because Google couldn't be bothered to update the documentation. Both AdWords and the related API is a paid for service, how can Google justify this given that the Analytics API is free, better documented and supported!?
