I have a minimal vb script:

'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
Dim fso
Dim  d
      set fso  = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

      for each d in fso.Drives
            wscript.echo d.DriveLetter
      next

     set fso = nothing
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------

Running both under CSCRIPT and WSCRIPT the script executes properly, i.e.,
the drives' letters are echo'ed. But the script does not terminate
gracefully,
instead it crashed with  'Application Error' Dialog which says that 'memory
cannot be read'.

Minimizing the script to:
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
Dim fso
Dim  d

     set fso  = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
     set fso = nothing

'---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------

does not help either.

WSH version is 5.0
VBScript version is latest from Microsoft Site. i.e., 3.1

Any clues?

TIA,
Yael.

 I had a similar problem and was forced to reinstall the vbscript runtimes.
After a period of time I had a reoccurrence of the problem where a reinstall
did not fix it. I wound up rebuilding the OS (Reinstalling) on my laptop. I
couldn't figure out what the problem was. After installing Visual Interdev
6.0 WSH 5.0 broke beyond repair.

If you are new to scripting you might want to take a look at my site. over
