How does one Learn to write Script Files in Windows ??

Are they simple dos commands or wat are they.......

"DOS commands" would be more like batch files. VBScripts or PowerShell scripts though are definitely scripts. If you're looking to pick up scripting now for the first time, I'd learn PowerShell.

Search the forums here. There's a thread from Royal that recommends various books to learn PowerShell. To start, I'd recommend this book, as he did:

http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-PowerShell-Programming-Absolute-Beginner/dp/1598638998/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1231333198&sr=8-2

This has been updated for PowerShell 2.0 which will be released probably within 2009.
