<script language="JScript">

var argsNamed = WScript.Arguments.Named;
var argsUnnamed = WScript.Arguments.Unnamed;

WScript.Echo("There are " + argsNamed.length + " named arguments.");
WScript.Echo("There are " + argsUnnamed.length + " unnamed arguments.");

</script>
</job>

<job id="VBS">

Dim argsNamed, argsUnnamed
Set argsNamed = WScript.Arguments.Named
