Coder's Talk

Remember the Microsoft TechNet Scripting Game that I joined last week? Now we have the Game Result for Beginner Division ... So, I only got total Score 94 out of 100. Was that a good start? I don't think so. I'm so careless. I better be a lot more careful on the next game if I'm joining it soon... next year maybe... Hmm... what is the book of today?... No, I don't offer book today. How about A VBScript Reference Poster ? The Poster is designed to make it easier to understand and memorize the VBScript Object Model much quicker. The size is 5' x 3' and is a colorized poster. This poster lays out the entire VBScript hierarchy and each listing leads you to its respective information. This poster has a list of every Object, Property, and Method. Each poster has a sample script for each Property and Method... How about that? Cool stuff for your wall huh? Then, Grab it now!!

The game is running and I have sent all my entries for each events. Oh no! I overlooked at one event where I have to modify one more line of code to get it right!! It is on Event 4 where I just have to modify the "Select * from Win32_Service" to "Select * from Win32_Service WHERE State=Running" . Aaarrghh!! that shows my lack of awareness in doing this... anyway, I'm loosing 5 marks for that... Hope I'm not loosing more... For those who are curious about VBScript and what can you do with it. I suggest you get this book and read it. Then you will enjoy what I'm doing with it...

Yeahh!! I'm in!! I'm joining the game just for fun... so, here is the screen capture of my name on the game score board. Anyway, you can also see the real live Microsoft TechNet Top Individual Scores: VBScript Beginners Division ... [Click image to see in full] Hmmm... Beginner ? well... this is my first try in this game. That's why I join the beginner. You may think, Why I don't have country name on my entry?... First, I think it is so serious about performing for my country. But then I realize that it is just for fun... and I can see nobody enter this game from my country... Malaysia ... oh no... so, today I will submit my next Event with country name... heheheh
