    RE: Start VBscript code

    As far as I know, a function or sub, will only be run if the script calls for
    it.

    For example, having a function like at the end of the script, will only be
    called when the script reaches the line that contains.

    strPath = AddQuotes("C:\program files\symantec")

    Function AddQuotes(strInput)
    AddQuotes = Chr(34) & strInput & Chr(34)
    End Function

    Usually functions and subs are at the end of the script for that reason. If
    your script doesn't call for the use of a function, that function won't be
    parsed by the script.

    At least that's how I understand they work, if I said anything wrong, please
    correct me, gurus.

    Webpages generate events, to which subs (and functions) can respond.
    For example: <BODY OnLoad="mySub()">
