I'm trying to run a vbscript from the script source, but I can't figure out how to direct output for it.  Does anyone have a working vbscript source that they can show me?

  I have determined that sumo uses the wscript interpreter, but wscript.echo doesn't seem to return anything.

  Hi Jay,

  The issue here is that wscript does not output to stdout, it outputs to a message box, which the Collector is unable to read. What you need to do is configure the default interpreter on the host to use cscript, which will output to stdout. This can be set with the following command.

  C:> cscript //h:CScript

  If this causes any problems for other scripts you may be running you can set the default back to wscript by running the following:

  C:> cscript //h:WScript

  You were very right and I can now make most dataz show up like they are supposed to.  Having trouble with datetimes, though.

  Not sure why this comes up empty:

  outy = "3/31/2014 3:08:09 PM"

  wscript.echo outy
