VBScript on ASP Classic contains an "int" function. (It rounds numbers towards -∞.) Suppose that some excessively "clever" coder has created a global variable named "int". Is there any way to get at the original function? I've tried all manner of workarounds with scoping and dodgy execs, but no dice. I suspect that it is impossible, but...

Hi What is the recommended way to transfer files via FTP and manage (rename, move, delete) files in an FTP server programmatically in a Windows Scripting Host script file (JavaScript/VBScript)? Preferably without requiring 3rd party ActiveX add-ons since these "extra" software will need to go through an approval process that will take ...

How can I determine whether a file is in use via VBScript or a batch file? It can be a separate utility. I've had a look at Handle but sometimes the handles don't line up with filenames, e.g. some DLLs, and it doesn't do partial searches (though I could presumably use some of the text processing utils on its full output to handle that ...
