Has anyone run across a similar Perl<-->_vbscript_ site? (Maybe I should just make one up myself as I "crack the code" so to speak...)

I thought Microsoft had a script tool that included Perl and _vbscript_ code, but I couldn't find it on a quick search (may have been pre-Scriptomatic 2.0), but maybe this will help "crack the code". What if you compared _vbscript_s and Perl scripts from Microsoft's script repository:
_vbscript_s - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/default.mspx?mfr=true
Perl Scripts - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/perl/default.mspx?mfr=true

You'd probably have to bounce back and forth between scripts, but you should be able to pull up the same (or similar) script in each Category and compare.

HTH,
Jeremy
