What kind of VBScript? Living where? How would you call it without CFM?

I have serverside vbscript fuction which is little bit difficult to migrate to
cfscript , so I just have thought in mind that give direct call from cfm pages.


Script resides in server side and uses some vbscript componet like RegExp....
and some critical date functions.

Thanks

That does not tell me much. So I can only give the following for
general answers.

1) If this can be expressed in a .NET DLL then the newest CF 8 can call
..NET DLL files, I have never done this.

2) If the script can be called from a command line, then the
<cfexecute...> tag may be able to call it.

3) If the VBScript can be called from a URL then the <cfhttp...> tag may
be able to invoke it.

4) If the VBScript can be called from a URL as a web service then
<cfinvoke...> OR createObject() may be used to call it.

5) I have seen some blog posts about using some undocumented feature of
CF 8 and it's Java 1.6 underpinnings to call other scripting languages.
I have not seen this in relation to VBScript, but rather PHP and
others, but who knows.

You might be able to do it with cfexecute.
