Constants

A constant is a name for a number or for a character string that you use in a script instead of the actual value. You cannot change the value of a constant.

VBS has a number of integrated constants that you can use anywhere in your script. As these constants are already defined in VBS, you need not declare them explicitly in your script.

VBS has constants in the following categories: Date and Time, Date Format, Colors, Message Display, Tristate, Variant subtypes, Character Strings, and Miscellaneous.

The subordinate topics contained in the tree on the contents tab of the Help describe the integrated VBS constants.
