I say again... Just like SQL allows itself to take any form... or Java... or...I've seen some absolutely gorgeous VBS both formatting wise and code wise. I've also seen my fair of VBS where the "S" stands for a 4 letter word 😉
Oh, I've seen some "pretty" VBScript, too (manually-formatted and all). But that doesn't improve its structure. If you want to compare it to SQL - it's like starting from a SQL data model where every column is a varchar(max)...
I suppose I've seen it tortured more than is natural. I see it a bit like you do with CLR in SQL - should be restricted to very specific items (read - very FEW items).

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?
