As a Win32 Scripting Journal reader, you're probably interested in learning scripting mainly to automate Windows 2000 (Win2K) and Windows NT administrative functions and even for Web site development. However, because many scripting technologies exist, you might not know where to start and have such questions as

  • What is a scripting technology?
  • What is an object model?
  • What is a scripting language?
  • Which scripting technologies and object models should I learn first?

When you understand the concepts of scripting technology and object models and know the roles that the most prominent scripting technologies and object models play in Windows, you'll have a much clearer idea of what scripting is and how to proceed to build a customized learning path. After you decide how to proceed, you can then use the resources listed in the Web-exclusive sidebar "For More Information" on the Win32 Scripting Journal Web site at http://www.win32scripting.com. . . .
