Actually Bill my issue is that the script provided worked fine on my Win7 machine but not on Windows Server 2003. &nbsp;Do you happen to know why? &nbsp;I get a Windows Script Host error - &quot;Execution of the Windows Script Host failed. &nbsp;(The parameter is incorrect.).&quot;

Does anyone have any help on how to remove BOM (EF BB BF) hex values from the beginning of a csv file? &nbsp;I have a static csv file that is generated daily and I need to remove those hex values which are at the beginning of the file only. &nbsp;Not a VB programmer but that would work best for automating to run daily on our server.

How to remove BOM hex characters from csv file

A programming language is a formal constructed language designed to communicate instructions to a machine, particularly a computer. Thousands of different programming languages have been created, mainly in the computer field, and many more still are being created every year. The description of a programming language is usually split into the two components of syntax (form) and semantics (meaning). Some languages are defined by a specification document (for example, the C programming language is specified by an ISO Standard), while other languages (such as Perl) have a dominant implementation that is treated as a reference. Some languages have both, with the basic language defined by a standard and extensions taken from the dominant implementation being common.

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
