Overview


This document introduces a new way to add scripting and OLE Automation capabilities to programs such as applications or servers. With the advent of Microsoft® ActiveX™ Scripting, hosts can call upon disparate scripting engines from multiple sources and vendors to perform scripting between components. The implementation of the script itself--language, syntax, persistent format, execution model, and so on--is left to the script vendor. Care has been taken to allow hosts that rely on ActiveX Scripting to use arbitrary language "back ends."
