How do I call a child script's classes?

[iamareplicant]

I am a VBA programmer new to VBscript.

What I would like to be able to do is create a child script that has several classes in them, then be able to call/instantiate those classes from other VBscripts.

All of my VBScript files will be run as Windows Scripting files (cscript) etc., and all files end in .VBS.

So, I need an example of how to call, from a parent script, a child script's classes.

Something like:

(Parent script)

Some sub()
Dim obj
set obj = new OtherscriptClass.Dosomething
end sub



I have searched online and Tek-Tips till I am more bald that I already was, and cannot find an example (nor can I find an example in several VBscript books).

Maybe this cant be done? Or, it is so simple that there are not examples?

Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks

Jeff

Thanks PH. That link is what I was looking for. Yes, it helps a great deal.

Now if I can just find a real world VBscript that instantiates classes from another VBscript...
