in Windows, when you connect a digital camera, you can select what action to take when you plug the camera in:<br />
<br />
<b>Control Panel</b> ―&gt; <b>All Control Panel Items</b> ―&gt; <b>AutoPlay</b><br />
<br />
another way to import is to 
<ol type="1">
<li>double click the computer icon on desktop and </li>
<li>right-click the camera </li>
<li>select Import</li>
<li>select More options</li>

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.
